D Using the DR mode scan
The DR mode scan is useful to find a repeater.
To quickly find a repeater, the DR mode scan skips re-
peaters that are not specified as an access repeater.
(The “USE (FROM)” setting is set to “NO” (SKIP is set)
on the repeater list.)
Example: Select the “Hirano” repeater using the DR
mode scan.
Push q
DR
(C) to select the DR mode.
Push w
MENU
(C) to display the “D-1” screen (D-1
menu).
Touch [SCAN]( e D) to start the DR mode scan.
• The frequency decimal point and “FROM” blink while
scanning.
• The repeaters in the repeater list are sequentially dis-
played.
• The scan pauses when a signal is received. The scan
resumes the same as other scans. (p. 12-5)
When the transceiver receives a signal from a re- r
peater, the scan stops, then touch [SCAN](D)
.
• The DR mode scan is cancelled.
You can skip certain repeaters as a scan target. You
can also skip all repeaters in certain groups from a
scan. See page 9-42 for details.
NOTE:
Even if the transceiver receives a signal from a re-
peater, the repeater may not receive the transceiv-
er’s signal, because the repeater’s output power is
higher than the transceiver’s.
