D-STAR OPERATION <BASIC>
5-5
The transceiver includes a status message in the signal
received back from the access repeater, after transmit-
ting.
Shows “UR?”
D
The call was successfully sent, but no station’s signal
was received within 3 seconds.
The called station may have missed your call, so after
waiting for a while, try calling again.
Shows “RPT?” or “RX”
D
The destination repeater was not found, there is a pro-
gramming error, or the destination repeater was busy.
When “RPT?” is displayed, after waiting for a while, try
calling again, because in a gateway call, your signal is
sent even if the destination repeater is busy.
NOTE:
“RPT?” or “RX” is displayed when:
• The repeater call sign programming is in error.
• Your own call sign is not registered on a gateway re
-
peater, or the registration contents is not matched.
• The destination call sign is not registered on a
gateway repeater, or the registration contents is not
matched.
• The destination repeater call sign is not registered
on a gateway repeater, or the registration contents
is not matched.
• The destination repeater cannot be accessed.
• A blank MY call sign memory is selected. (“RX” is
displayed)
Shows “L”
D
While operating in the voice communication or low-
speed data communication mode through the internet,
some packets may be lost due to network error, or the
caller’s signal is weak getting into the repeater. In such
a case, “
L
” is displayed to indicate that Packet Loss has
occurred.
When the transceiver receives corrupted data, and
misidentifies it as Packet Loss, “
L
” is displayed, even
if it is a Local area call.
Indicates packet loss
“
L
” blinks
while packet
loss is occurring.
This means that your local area call was cor-
rectly sent from the “Hirano” repeater.
This means that your gateway call was correctly
sent from the “Hirano” repeater to the “Hama-
cho” repeater.
This means that your gateway call was sent
from the “Hirano” repeater to the “Hamacho” re-
peater, but the “Hamacho” repeater was busy
at the time.
