Transmitting a 1750 Hz Tone
Most repeaters in Europe require that a transceiver transmit a 1750 Hz tone. By turning the 1750 Hz tone menu item ON, the transceiver will automatically transmit the 1750 Hz tone for 2 seconds whenever you transmit.
1Enter Menu mode and access Menu 402 (1750.HD) {page 20}.
2Set the tone to ON or OFF.
•When set to ON, the 1750 Hz tone will transmit. When set to OFF, the tone will not be transmitted.
REVERSE FUNCTION
After setting a separate receive and transmit frequency, you can exchange these frequencies using the Reverse function. This allows you to manually check the strength of signals you receive directly from other stations, while using a repeater. If the station’s signal is strong, move to a simplex frequency to continue the contact and free up the repeater.
Press [REV] to turn the Reverse function ON or OFF.
• When the Reverse function is ON, the 
icon will appear on the display.
Note:
uIf the transmit frequency is outside the allowable transmit frequency range when using Reverse, pressing [PTT] will cause an error tone to sound and transmission will be inhibited.
uIf the receive frequency is outside the receive frequency range when using Reverse, an error tone will sound and Reverse will not operate.
uThe ARO (Automatic Repeater Offset) will not function when Reverse is ON.
uYou cannot switch Reverse ON or OFF while transmitting.
Automatic Simplex Checker (ASC)
While using a repeater, ASC periodically monitors the strength of signals you receive directly from the other stations. If the station’s signal is strong enough to allow direct contact without a repeater, the 
icon blinks.
Press [REV] (1s) to turn the ASC ON.
