DMO
A DMO repeater is used to extend the DMO range by retransmitting received information from one
radio to another. It retransmits group calls, private calls and data on a given frequency. In the diagram
above the radio in the middle is a repeater.
The repeater sends presence signal periodically on a free channel to allow other radios to synchronize
on a given frequency.
Only the radios on the same talkgroup can communicate with each other through the repeater.
The Repeater Mode is activated by selecting
