Checking the Repeater Uplink (Input) Frequency
It often is helpful to be able to check the uplink (input) frequency of a repeater, to see if
the calling station is within direct (“Simplex”) range.
To do this, just press the [
REV
(
DW
)] key. You’ll
notice that the display has shifted to the repeater
uplink frequency. Press the [
REV
(
DW
)] key
again to cause operation to revert to normal
monitoring of the repeater downlink (output)
frequency. While you are listening on the input
frequency to the repeater using the [
REV
(
DW
)]
key, the repeater offset icon will blink.
