REPEATER OPERATION
Repeater operation
Repeaters extend the operational range of the transceiver by retransmitting the signals it receives. Repeaters are
usually located on the top of a building or a mountain, as the elevation increases their effectiveness, allowing the user
to transmit and receive over greater distances. During Simplex operation, transceivers transmit and receive on the
same frequency. During Duplex operation (using a repeater) transceivers transmit and receive on different frequen-
cies. It automatically does this when one of the repeater channels is selected.
