USING A REPEATER CHANNEL
UHF CB Repeaters are used to retransmit or relay your signal. Repeaters will extend the range of your radio and overcome the shielding effect caused by solid obstructions.
In normal Simplex operation, your radio transmits on one particular frequency and receives on that same frequency. If there is a barrier (i.e. a Tall Building) that partially blocks your transmitted signal, the possibility of the other radio receiving the signal is very slim. Valleys, metallic structures, etc., tend to act as a screen between radios.
Standard Operation without the aid of a Repeater Station
Operation with the aid of a Repeater
With Duplex operation, the signal coming from your radio is received by the Repeater station and then
Your
For example:
1.CH01 is on Duplex Mode
-will Receive on CH01 but Transmit on CH31
2.CH02 is on Duplex Mode
-will Receive on CH02 but Transmit on CH32, etc....
Refer to Duplex Operating Mode table on the last page.
