RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT 4

DRepeater operation

A repeater amplifies received signals and retransmits them at a different frequency. When using a repeater, the transmit frequency is shifted from the receive fre- quency by an offset frequency. A repeater can be accessed using split frequency operation with the shift frequency set to the repeater’s offset frequency.

Set the offset frequency and turn ON the quick split function in initial set mode in advance (p. 52).

If the quick split function is turned OFF, both transmit and receive must be set separately.

Push [MODE] one or more times to select FM mode, then set the receive frequency.

Select a suitable tone frequency or the 1750 Hz tone burst in quick set mode.

Push [DISPLAY] for 2 sec., then push [MENU] one or more times to select “Q4 RPTR TONE.”

If FM mode has not been selected, this item does not appear.

Rotate the main dial to set a subaudible tone fre- quency or the 1750 Hz tone burst function.

Push [DISPLAY] to exit quick set mode.

Push [(F-1)SPL] for 2 sec. (in the M1 display) to activate the split frequency function (duplex func- tion) with the pre-selected offset.

When a subaudible tone frequency (excepting 1750 Hz) is selected in , “FM-T” is selected simultaneously.

Push and hold [PTT] to transmit; release [PTT] to receive.

When a 1750 Hz tone burst is selected, push and hold [(F-3)TON] in the M4 display while pushing [PTT] to send the 1750 Hz tone burst.

To check the repeater input frequency (direct sig-

nal from the other station), push and hold [(F-3)XFC] in the M1 display.

To return to simplex operation, push [(F-1)SPL].

CONVENIENT

Each memory channel can store a tone frequency (subaudible tones or a tone burst) and an offset fre- quency, as well as the operating frequency. Store repeater information into memory channels for quick and easy access to repeaters.

Turn the quick split function ON.

(Initial set mode default is ON.)
