REPEATER AND DUPLEX OPERATIONS
11-2
FMRepeateroperation
A repeater receives signals and on one frequency, and
then retransmits them on a different frequency. When
using a repeater, the transmit frequency is shifted from
the receive frequency by a frequency offset.
A repeater can be accessed using the duplex function
by setting the transceiver’s offset to the same value as
the repeater’s offset.
See Sections 6 and 7 for details on accessing a D-
STAR repeater.

Foryourreference:
• If the Repeater tone frequency or the frequency off-
set is changed, the tone or offset for auto repeater
function is also changed.
• If the offset value will cause the transmit frequency
to be out of the band, “OFF BAND” appears on the
display when [PTT] is pushed, and transmit will be
inhibited. (p. 11-5)
