Repeater Operation
Repeater stations are often located on mountaintops or other high locations,
and provide a dramatic extension of the communication range for low-pow-
ered hand-held or mobile transceivers. The
FT-25R/E
includes a number of
features which make repeater operation simple and enjoyable.
Repeater Shifts
The transceiver has been configured at the factory for the repeater shifts
customary in the sales destination country. For the 144 MHz band the re-
peater shift will be 0.6 MHz.
Automatic Repeater Shift (ARS)
The
FT-25R/E
provides a convenient Automatic Repeater Shift feature, which
automatically applies the appropriate repeater frequency shift when tuning in
the repeater sub-bands of the designated country. The ARS setting options
are listed below:
