PROGRAMMING OFFSET

First select band A or B by pressing the left or right [BAND SEL]. To recall the sub-band next, press [F], then the same [BAND SEL].

Selecting Offset Direction

Select whether the transmit frequency will be higher

(+) or lower (–) than the receive frequency.

Press [F], [SHIFT] to switch the offset direction.

“+” or “–” appears to indicate which offset direction is selected.

To program –7.6 MHz offset on the TM-D700E (UHF only), repeatedly press [F], [SHIFT] until “=” appears.

If the offset transmit frequency falls outside the allowable range, transmitting is inhibited. Use one of the following methods to bring the transmit frequency within the band limits:

Move the receive frequency further inside the band.

Change the offset direction.

Note: While using an odd-split memory channel or transmitting, you cannot change the offset direction.

Selecting Offset Frequency

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 (TM-D700A) or 1.6 MHz (TM-D700E).

1Press [MNU] to enter Menu mode.

2 Press [c]/ [d] to select “RADIO (1–)”, then press

6

 

[OK].

 

3Press [c]/ [d] to select “REPEATER (1–7–)”, then press [OK].

4Press [c]/ [d] to select “OFFSET FREQUENCY (1–7–1)”, then press [OK].

5Press [c]/ [d] to select the appropriate offset frequency.

The selectable range is from 0.00 MHz to 29.95 MHz in steps of 50 kHz.

6Press [OK] to complete the setting.

7Press [MNU] to exit Menu mode.

TM-D700E Only: If you have selected “ =” for the offset direction, you cannot change the default (7.6 MHz).

Note: After changing the offset frequency, the new offset frequency will also be used by Automatic Repeater Offset.
