REPEATER AND DUPLEX OPERATION
4-3
D Checking the Repeater input signal
You can check whether or not another station’s
transmit signal can be received directly (not through a
repeater) by listening to the repeater input frequency.
z Hold down [MONI] to listen to the repeater input
frequency.
L While monitoring, the status indicator lights green, and
an S/RF meter dot blinks.
L While monitoring, the displayed frequency
automatically changes to the transceiver transmit
frequency (repeater input frequency).
L When the other station’s signal can be directly
received, move to a non-repeater frequency, and use
simplex (Duplex OFF).
Accessing a repeater
D Using the 1750 Hz tone burst
A 1750 Hz tone is required to access many European
repeaters.
Step 1. Selecting “t-CALL”
1. Push [SET] to enter the Set mode.
• A Set mode item is displayed.
2. Repeatedly push [SET] to select “dtmF-t.”
3. Rotate [DIAL] to select “t-CALL.”
4. Push [V/M/C] to exit the Set mode.
Step 2. Using the 1750 Hz tone burst
1. Set the receive frequency
(repeater output frequency).
2. Set the duplex direction of the transmit frequency
(p. 4-4).
3. While holding down [PTT], push [MONI] to
transmit a 1750 Hz tone burst signal.
• The displayed frequency automatically changes to the
transmit frequency (repeater input frequency).
L If “OFF” is displayed, check the frequency offset or
duplex direction status (p. 4-4).
TIP: For only the EUR version:
down [PTT] to transmit a 1750 Hz tone burst
signal.
4. Hold down [PTT] to transmit, release [PTT] to
receive.
L Hold down [MONI] to check whether the other
station’s transmit signal can be received or not, by
listening on the repeater input frequency.
