OPERATING THROUGH REPEATERS

OPERATING THROUGH REPEATERS

Repeaters, which are often installed and maintained by radio clubs, are usually located on mountain tops or

Offset Programming Flow

3other elevated locations. Generally they operate at

4higher ERP (Effective Radiated Power) than a typical station. This combination of elevation and high ERP

5allows communications over much greater distances

6than communications without using repeaters.

7Most repeaters use a receive and transmit frequency

8pair with a standard or non-standard offset (odd-split). In addition, some repeaters must receive a tone from the

9transceiver to allow it to access. For details, consult

10your local repeater reference.
