D-STAR OPERATION

PROBLEM

POSSIBLE CAUSE

SOLUTION

REF.

After your call, the repeater does 

not return a status reply.

 

The repeater setting is wrong.

 

 Your transmission did not reach the repeater.

 

Select the correct repeater.

 

 Correct the repeater frequency, frequency 

offset, or duplex settings.

 

 Wait until you are closer to the repeater and 

try again.

 

Try to access another repeater.

p. 60

After your call, the repeater replies 

‘UR?’ and its call sign.

The call was successfully sent, but no station 

immediately replied.

Wait for a while, and try again.

After your call, the repeater replies 

‘RX’ or ‘RPT?’ and the access 

repeater’s call sign.

 

 Your own call sign (MY) has not been set.

 

 Your own call sign (MY) has not been 

registered on a gateway repeater, or the 

registered contents do not match your 

transceiver’s settings.

 

 Set your own call sign (MY).

 

 Register your own call sign (MY) on a gateway 

repeater, or confirm the registration of the call 

sign.

p. 39

p. 41

After your call, the repeater replies 

‘RPT?’ and the access repeater’s 

call sign.

The call sign of the destination repeater is 

wrong.

 Correctly set the destination repeater call sign.

To communicate through the repeater, your signal must access to the repeater. The following chart is designed to help you 

correct problems which are not equipment malfunctions.
