■Accessing a repeater

qSet the receive frequency (repeater output frequency). (pgs. 11, 12)

wPush [LOW•DUP] for 1 sec. one or two times, to select minus duplex or plus duplex.

•“DUP–” or “DUP” appears to indicate the transmit frequency for minus shift or plus shift, respectively.

•When the auto repeater function is turned ON (available for the USA version only), steps w and e are not necessary. (p. 25)

[LOW•DUP] “DUP–” or “DUP” appears

ePush [TONE•T-SCAN] several times to turn ON the sub- audible tone encoder, according to repeater requirements.

•“T” appears

•88.5 Hz is set as the default; refer to p. 22 for tone frequency settings.

•When the repeater requires a different tone system, see p. 23.

REPEATER OPERATION 4

rPush and hold [PTT] to transmit.

•The displayed frequency automatically changes to the transmit frequency (repeater input frequency).

	• If “OFF” appears, conﬁrm that the offset frequency (p. 24) is set	4
	correctly.	4
	correctly.

tRelease [PTT] to receive.

While receiving

While transmitting

yPush [MONI•DTMF] to check whether the other station’s transmit signal can be received directly.

uTo return to simplex operation, push [LOW•DUP] once or twice, to clear the “DUP–” or “DUP” indicator.

iTo turn OFF the subaudible tone encoder, push [TONE•T- SCAN] several times until no tone indicators appear.

[TONE•T-SCAN]

“T” appears
