D-STAR OPERATION <BASIC>
8-11
D Using the Repeater Search function
The transceiver searches for the nearest repeater by
using your own and the repeater’s position.
The nearest repeater in your transceiver’s repeater list
is displayed as the available choices.
To receive your own position, connect an external
NMEA format compatible receiver to the transceiver
according to the instructions.
( See page 10-2 for connecting the third party GPS re-
ceiver)
If you set your position into the “Manual” item of the
“GPS Set” Set mode, and if you use the transceiver as
a base station, you can use the Repeater Search func-
tion without needing to receive any other position data.
(See page 10-2 for Manual position entry)
