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
key. You’ll notice that the display has shifted to the repeater
uplink frequency. Press the
key again to cause operation to revert to normal monitor--
ing of the repeater downlink (output) frequency.
The configuration of this key may be set either to “
RV
” (for checking the inut
frequency of a repeater, or “
HM
” (for instant switching to the “Home” chan-
nel for the band you are operating on). To change the configuration of this
key, use Menu Item (
Misc. Setup #2 HOM
/
REV
). See page 49.
