General
When using a repeater, the transmit frequency is shifted from
the receive frequency by the offset frequency. It is convenient
to program repeater information into memory channels.
q
Set the receive frequency (repeater output frequency).
w
Push
[FUNC]
and
[
DUP
]
(4) several times to select “–” or “+.”
• “–” indicates the transmit frequency is shifted down; “+” indicates
the transmit frequency is shifted up.
• Blinking “–” or “+” indicates the reversed duplex mode is selected
in
SET MODE
(p. 48).
e
Push
[FUNC]
and
[
TONE
]
(1) several times to activate the
subaudible tone encoder, if required.
• “ ” appears.
• Select the desired subaudible tone frequency, if necessary.
(p. 23)
r
Push and hold
[PTT]
to transmit.
• The displayed frequency automatically changes to the transmit
frequency (repeater input frequency).
• If “OFF” appears, check the offset frequency (see next page for
details) and direction.
t
Release
[PTT]
to receive.
y
Push and hold
[MONI]
to check whether the other station’s
transmit signal can be directly received.
■
Reversed duplex mode
When the reversed duplex mode is selected, the receive fre-
quency shifts.
(Transmit frequency shifts in normal duplex mode.)
Each receive and transmit frequency is shown in the table
below with the following conditions;
Input frequency
: 145.30 MHz
Direction
: – (negative)
Offset frequency
: 0.6 MHz
q
Push
[FUNC]
, then push
[

(8) to enter
SET MODE
.
w
Push
[

several times until “REV” appears.
e
Rotate
[VOL]
to turn the reversed duplex mode ON or
OFF.
r
Push
[

(or
[CLR]
) to exit
SET MODE
.
