4 RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT ■ Repeater operation A repeater retransmits a received signal on a different frequency. When using a repeater, the transmit frequency is shifted from the receive frequency by an offset frequency. A repeater can be accessed using split frequency operation with the transmit frequency shifted to the repeater's receive frequency. For accessing a repeater which requires an access tone, set the tone frequency in tone frequency set mode as described below. q S et the offset frequencies (HF, 50 MHz) and turn ON the quick split function in others set mode in advance. (pgs. 89, 129) w Push [VFO/MEMO] to select VFO mode. e Push the desired band key. r P ush [AM/FM] several times to select FM mode. t S et the receive frequency (repeater output fre- quency). y P ush and hold [SPLIT] for 1 sec. to start repeater operation. • Repeater tone is turned ON automatically. • [SPLIT] indicator lights and " " appears on the LCD. • The tone encoder function is turned ON in FM mode. • Shifted transmit frequency and "TX" appear in the sub band. • The transmit frequency can be monitored while push- ing [XFC]. u P ush and hold [PTT] to transmit; release [PTT] to receive. i T o return to simplex, push [SPLIT] momentarily. D Repeater access tone frequency setting Some repeaters require subaudible tones to be accessed. Subaudible tones are superimposed on your normal signal and must be set in advance. The transceiver has 50 tones from 67.0 Hz to 254.1 Hz. q D uring FM mode operation, push and hold [TONE] (MF7) for 1 sec. to enter tone frequency set mode. w P ush [Y] (F-1) or [Z] (F-2) to select REPEATER TONE item. e R otate the main dial to select the desired repeater tone frequency. • Push and hold [DEF] (F-4) for 1 sec. to select the default setting. r P ush [EXIT/SET] to return to the previous indication. • Available tone frequencies (unit: Hz) 67.0 85.4 107.2 136.5 165.5 186.2 210.7 254.1 69.3 088.5 110.9 141.3 167.9 189.9 218.1 71.9 091.5 114.8 146.2 171.3 192.8 225.7 74.4 094.8 118.8 151.4 173.8 196.6 229.1 77.0 097.4 123.0 156.7 177.3 199.5 233.6 79.7 100.0 127.3 159.8 179.9 203.5 241.8 82.5 103.5 131.8 162.2 183.5 206.5 250.3 [SPLIT] indicator SPLIT Band keys AM/FM Main XFC dial VFO/MEMO Appears Appears TONE F-1 F-2 F-4 DEF • Tone frequency set mode EXIT/SET Main dial 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 62

Repeater operation
A repeater retransm±ts a rece±ved s±gnal on a d±ffer-
ent frequency. When us±ng a repeater, the transm±t
frequency ±s sh±fted from the rece±ve frequency by an
offset frequency. A repeater can be accessed us±ng
spl±t frequency operat±on w±th the transm±t frequency
sh±fted to the repeater's rece±ve frequency.
For access±ng a repeater wh±ch requ±res an access
tone, set the tone frequency ±n tone frequency set
mode as descr±bed below.
q
Set the offset frequenc±es (HF, 50 MHz) and turn
ON the qu±ck spl±t funct±on ±n others set mode ±n
advance. (pgs. 89, 129)
w
Push
[VFO/MEMO]
to select VFO mode.
e
Push the des±red band key.
r
Push
[AM/FM]
several t±mes to select FM mode.
t
Set the rece±ve frequency (repeater output fre-
quency).
y
Push and hold
[SPLIT]
for 1 sec. to start repeater
operat±on.
• Repeater tone ±s turned ON automat±cally.
[SPLIT] ±nd±cator l±ghts and “
” appears on
the LCD.
The tone encoder funct±on ±s turned ON ±n FM mode.
Sh±fted transm±t frequency and “TX” appear ±n the sub
band.
The transm±t frequency can be mon±tored wh±le push-
±ng [XFC].
u
Push and hold [PTT] to transm±t; release [PTT] to
rece±ve.
i
To return to s±mplex, push
[SPLIT]
momentar±ly.
D
Repeater access tone frequency setting
Some repeaters requ±re subaud±ble tones to be
accessed. Subaud±ble tones are super±mposed on
your normal s±gnal and must be set ±n advance. The
transce±ver has 50 tones from 67.0 Hz to 254.1 Hz.
q
Dur±ng FM mode operat±on, push and hold
[TONE]
(MF7)
for 1 sec. to enter tone frequency set mode.
w
Push
[
Y
] (F-1)
or
[
Z
] (F-2)
to select REPEATER
TONE ±tem.
e
Rotate the ma±n d±al to select the des±red repeater
tone frequency.
Push and hold
[DEF] (F-4)
for 1 sec. to select the
default sett±ng.
r
Push
[EXIT/SET]
to return to the prev±ous ±nd±cat±on.
