REPEATER OPERATION
4-2
To communicate with another station in an area where
radio waves cannot directly received, you can use a
repeater as a relay. This is called duplex operation.
The frequencies are pre-programmed into an
operating channel for duplex operation. Ask your
dealer for details.
1. Push [
Y
] or [
Z
] to select a channel that has been
programmed for repeater use.
L
The frequencies are pre-programmed into
channels using the CS-G86
programming
software
. Ask your dealer for details.
2. Push [FUNC], and then push [TONE] several
times to turn ON the subaudible tone encoder,
depending on the repeater requirements.
• “ ” is displayed.
L
The subaudible tone frequency can be set in
the Set mode.
3. Hold down [PTT] to transmit.
4. Release [PTT] to receive.
5. Hold down [MONI] to check whether you can
directly receive the signal from the other station.
L
When the other station’s signal can be directly
received, move to a non-repeater frequency to
use simplex. (duplex OFF)

Talk Around function
The Talk Around function equalizes the transmit
frequency to the receive frequency for transceiver-
to-transceiver communication. Duplex operation
temporarily changes to simplex operation.
This function is convenient at the following situations
when:
- The repeater is broken down and is not usable.
- You cannot access the repeater because of distance,
low power or location.
- You can easily contact the other transceiver without
using the repeater.
1. Push [
Y
] or [
Z
] to select a channel that has been
programmed for repeater use.
2. Push [FUNC] and then push [T/A] to turn ON the
Talk Around function.
• “ ” is displayed.
3. Push [PTT] to transmit.
4. Release [PTT] to receive on the same frequency.
• The transmit frequency is same as the receive
frequency.
