REPEATER
OPERATIONS
5-7-1
Transmitter
Offsets
All
radio
reqpeaters
utilize
a
separate
receive
and
transmit
frequency.
The
receiver
frequency
may
be
either
above
or
below
that
of
the
transmit
frequency.
The
initial
offset
frequency
will
fall
into
one
of
the
categories listed below:
P| AR-146 AR-446
+ +600kHz +5M#Hz
Offset Direction
To select the desired transmitter offset direction press the SHIFT/AL
key.
Each
time
you
press
the
key
the
transceiver
will
advance
from
one
direction
to
thenext.i.e.
“
—”
to
“+”.

To select the desired offset frequency use the following procedure:
4. Press the VFO/MP V key to selcet the VFO mode.
2. Press the F key for longer than 1 second. The F indicator will
begin to flash. Press the VFO/MbV key within 10 seconds of
pressing the F key. The current tone frequency will show in the
display.
3. Rotate the tuning control or press the microphone UP/DN
switches to select the desired offset frequency.
4. Press the VFO/MPV key to select the VFO made.
5-7-2 Reverse Function
Some
repeaters
utilize
a
“Reverse
Pair”,
i.e.
the
transmit/receive
frequencies
are
exactly
the
reverse
of
another
repeater.
For
example
repeater
A
uses
146.000
for
a
transmit
frequency
(INPUT)
and
146.600
for
a
receiver
frequency
(OUTPUT).
Repeater
B
might
use
146.600
for
a
receiver
frequency.
It
would
be
inconvenient
to
have
to
reprogram
the
transceiver
each
time
you
wanted
to
use
these
repeaters.
Press
the
F
key
momentarily.
The
F
indicator
should
light
in
the
display.
Press
the
SHFET/REV
key
within
10
seconds
of
pressing
the
F
key.
The
REV
function
is
active.
