REPEATER OPERATION

■
About Repeater
To communicate with another station in a area where radio
waves cannot be directly received, you can use a repeater
as the relay.
In repeater operation, the transmit frequency is different from
the receive frequency. This is called duplex operation.
The frequencies are pre-programmed into an operating chan-
nel for duplex operation. Ask your dealer for details.
q
Push
[
] or [
] to select a channel that has been pro-
grammed for repeater use.
• The frequencies are pre-programmed into channels using the
CS-G80
cloning
software
.
Ask your dealer for details.

If required, push
[FUNC](*) and then [TONE](1) one or
more times to activate the subaudible tone encoder.

e
Push
[PTT] to transmit; release to receive.
r
Hold down
[MONI] to check whether the other station’s
transmit signal can be directly received or not.
When the signal can be directly received, move to the sim-
plex operation channel.
D
Talk Around function
The Talk Around function equalizes the transmit frequency
to the receive frequency for transceiver-to-transceiver com-
munication, Duplex operation temporarily changes to simplex
operation.
This function is convenient at the following situations:
- When the repeater is broken down and is not usable.
- When you can use only the down link frequency (receive).
