Accessing a repeater
q
Set the receive frequency (repeater output frequency) on
the main band. (pgs. 11–13)
w
Push [DUP•MONI] one or two times, to select minus du-
plex or plus duplex.
• “DUP–” or “DUP” appears to indicate the transmit frequency for
minus shift or plus shift, respectively.
• When the auto repeater function is turned ON (available for the
USA version only), steps
w
and
e
are not necessary. (p. 28)
e
Push [TONE•DTMF] several times to turn ON the subaudi-
ble tone encoder, according to repeater requirements.
• “T” appears
• 88.5 Hz is set as the default; refer to p. 25 for tone frequency set-
tings.
• When the repeater requires a different tone system, see p. 26.
r
Push and hold [PTT] to transmit.
• The displayed frequency automatically changes to the transmit
frequency (repeater input frequency).
• If “OFF” appears, confirm that the offset frequency (p. 27) is set
correctly.
t
Release [PTT] to receive.
y
Push [DUP•MONI] to check whether the other station’s
transmit signal can be received directly.
u
To return to simplex operation, push [DUP•MONI] once or
twice, to clear the “DUP–” or “DUP” indicator.
i
To turn OFF the subaudible tone encoder, push
[TONE•DTMF] several times until no tone indicators ap-
pear.
