BASIC OPERATION 4 ■ Duplex operation Duplex communication uses two different frequencies for transmitting and receiving. Generally, duplex is used in communication through a repeater, some utility communications, etc. During duplex operation, the transmit station frequency is shifted from the receive station frequency by the frequency offset. Repeater information (frequency offset and shift direction) can be programmed into memory channels. (p. 19) D Setting q S et the station's receive frequency (repeater output frequen- cy). w Hold down [SET](TS) for 1 second to enter the Set mode. e Rotate [DIAL] to select the "EXPAND" item. • "EXPAND" disappears after 1 second and "OFF" (default) and "EX" appear. [DIAL] Expand set mode item After 1 sec.
