Tone scan function: When you don’t know the subaudible
tone used for a repeater, the tone scan is convenient for de-
tecting the tone frequency.
Push [

T SCAN] for 2 sec. to activate. See p. 33 for more in-
formation.
REPEATER OPERATION

■
General
When using a repeater, the transmit frequency is shifted from
the receive frequency by the offset frequency. (p. 20) It is con-
venient to program repeater information into memory chan-
nels. (p. 22)
q
Assign the main band to the desired display with [MAIN].
w
Set the receive frequency (repeater output frequency).
e
Push [
(TONE)
DUP] for 2 sec. once to select – DUP or twice
to select DUP.
• “– DUP” or “DUP” appears to indicate the transmit frequency for
minus shift or plus shift, respectively.
• When the auto repeater function is in use (U.S.A. version only),
this selection and step
r
are not necessary. (p. 21)
r
Push [TONE] to activate the subaudible tone encoder, ac-
cording to repeater requirements.
• Refer to the next page for tone frequency settings.
t
Push and hold [PTT] to transmit.
• The displayed frequency automatically changes to the transmit
frequency (repeater input frequency).
• If “oFF” appears, check the offset frequency. (p. 20)
y
Release [PTT] to receive.
u
Push and hold [SQL] to check whether the other station’s
transmit signal can be directly received or not.
Some repeaters require DTMF tones or a 1750 Hz tone to
be accessed. In this case, perform the following instead of
step
r
at left with the required tone.
DTMF TONES (IC-W32A only)
While pushing [PTT], push the desired digit key(s) to trans-
mit DTMF tones.
• The transceiver has 4 DTMF memory channels. See p. 26 for de-
tails.
1750 Hz TONE (Europe, Italy and U.K. versions only)
While pushing [PTT], push and hold [CALL] for 1 to 2 sec.
to transmit a 1750 Hz tone burst signal.
• Pushing [PTT] 2 times quickly also transmits a 1750 Hz tone. Re-
lease [PTT] briefly, then push [PTT] again to talk in this case.
