Kenwood 144 Programming Offset, Selecting Offset Direction, frequency, within the band limits

PROGRAMMING OFFSET ■ Selecting Offset Frequency

First select band A or B by pressing [A/B]. Then, if necessary, press [F], [A/B] to recall the sub-band.

■Selecting Offset Direction

Select whether the transmit frequency will be higher

(+)or lower (–) than the receive frequency. Press [F], [MHz] to switch the offset direction.

To access a repeater which requires an odd-split frequency pair, change the offset frequency from the default which is used by most repeaters. The default offset frequency on the VHF band is 600 kHz no matter which market version; the default on the UHF band is 5 MHz (TH-D7A) or 1.6 MHz (TH-D7E).

1Press [F], [5] to select “F–5 (OFFSET)”.
