Local area call Access repeater Hamacho repeater Simplex call Hamacho area To call through your local area (access) repeater. To call another station not using a repeater. Gateway call Hirano INTERNET repeater INTERNET Sapporo repeater Hirano area Sapporo area To call through your local area (access) repeater, repeater gateway and the internet to your destination repeater or individual station's last used repeater, using call sign routing. NOTE: • Using the repeater list is required to use the DR function. (p. 68) • Before operating in the duplex mode, be sure to check whether the repeater is busy, or not. If the repeater is busy, wait until it is clear, or ask for a "break" using a method acceptable to your local procedures. • T he transceiver has a Time-Out Timer function for DV operation. The timer limits a continuous transmission. Warning beeps will sound approximately 30 seconds before time-out and then again immediately before time-out. 45
