signal over a much wider area, providing greatly increased range. The Duplex mode only works on
designated repeater channels 1 – 8 and 41 – 48. With Duplex selected on one of these channels,
your radio actually transmits 30 channels higher than it receives. For example, if Duplex is selected

Duplex can be enabled or disabled on individual channels. When Duplex is enabled on the selected
channel, is displayed.
The Duplex mode is set through the Menu. Please refer the menu opons in the Menu secon further in
