RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT
■
Repeater operation
A repeater amplifies received signals and re-transmits
them at a different frequency. When using a repeater,
the transmit frequency is shifted from the receive fre-
quency by an offset frequency. A repeater can be ac-
cessed using split frequency operation with the shift
frequency set to the repeater’s offset frequency.
q
Set the offset frequency and turn ON the quick split
function in initial set mode in advance (pgs. 79, 80).
• If the quick split function is turned OFF, both transmit
and receive must be set separately.
w
Push [MODE] one or more times to select FM
mode, then set the receive frequency.
