A repeater receives your radio’s signals and
simultaneously retransmits them on a different
frequency to provide a greater communication range.
When using a repeater, the transmit frequency shifts
from the receive frequency by an offset amount. You
can access a repeater using the split function.
1.
Set the operating frequency in the FM mode.
(Example: 29.650.00 MHz)
2. Hold down
SPLIT
for 1 second.
• Turns ON the Quick Split function.
• Turns the Tone function ON and “TONE” is displayed.
•
The TX indicator and the repeater’s receive frequency
are displayed on the Sub band .

Setting the repeater tone frequency
Some repeaters require a subaudible tone in order to
be accessed. Subaudible tones are superimposed on
your signal, and must be set first.
Do the following steps to set the tone frequency.
1.
Select the FM mode.
2.
Touch [TONE] for 1 second.
3. Rotate
MAIN
DIAL
to select the subaudible tone
frequency.
Resets the tone frequency
