SETTING THE REPEATER OFFSET DIRECTION
1.Set an offset frequency other than 0.0.
2.Press FUNC + SC (RPT) to see the current offset direction (+ above or – below).
3.Press FUNC + MO (REV) to change the repeater offset direc- tion.
Note: To save this setting in a memory location, must be flashing before you store the settings (see “” on Page 31 and “Storing a Transmit/Receive Frequency” on Page 29). Otherwise, the setting reverts to its saved value the next time you turn on the
REVERSING THE TRANSMIT AND RECEIVE FREQUENCIES
To swap the input and output frequencies, press FUNC+PTT. For example, if you have set the radio to repeater operation on 146.940 with a positive offset, the radio would normally receive on 146.94 and transmit on 146.340 MHz. After you press FUNC+PTT, the radio will receive on 146.340 and transmit on 146.940.
This feature is useful if you want to determine whether you are close enough to another station to communicate on a simplex fre- quency. While the other station is transmitting, reverse the fre- quencies. If you can still hear the other station, you are hearing their signal directly and you do not need to use the repeater.
