DKey-touch beep

The key-touch beep can be turned OFF for silent operation.

To prevent accidental prolonged transmission, etc., the trans- ceiver has a time-out timer. This function cuts a transmission OFF after 1–30 min. of continuous transmission. This timer

can be cancelled.

TOT-3/5/15/30 : The transmission is cut OFF after the set period elapses.

DAuto repeaterU.S.A. version only

The auto repeater function automatically turns ON or OFF the duplex operation with a specified shift direction and tone en- coder, when the operating frequency falls within or outside of 145.200–145.495, 146.610–146.995, 147.000–147.395, 442.000–444.995, and 447.000–449.995 MHz range. The off- set and repeater tone frequencies are not changed by the auto repeater function, reset these frequencies, if necessary.
