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 shift frequency set to the repeater's offset frequency. For accessing a repeater which requires a repeater tone, set the repeater tone frequency in tone frequency set mode as described below. q Set the offset frequencies (HF, 50 MHz) and turn ON the quick split function in miscellaneous (others) set mode in advance.

Repeater operation
A repeater amplifies received signals and retransmits
them at a different frequency. When using a repeater,
the transmit frequency is shifted from the receive fre-
quency by an offset frequency. A repeater can be ac-
cessed using split frequency operation with the shift
frequency set to the repeater’s offset frequency.
For accessing a repeater which requires a repeater
tone, set the repeater tone frequency in tone fre-
quency set mode as described below.
q
Set the offset frequencies (HF, 50 MHz) and turn
ON the quick split function in miscellaneous (others)
set mode in advance. (p. 12-15)
w
Push [V/M] to select VFO mode.
e
Push the desired band key.
r
Push [AM/FM] several times to select FM mode.
t
Set the receive frequency (repeater output fre-
quency).
y
Push [SPLIT] for 1 sec. to start repeater operation.
• Repeater tone is turned ON automatically.
• [SPLIT] indicator lights and “
” appears on the
LCD.
• Shifted transmit frequency and “TX” appear in the sub
band.
• The transmit frequency can be monitored while pushing
[XFC] or using dualwatch.
u
Push and hold [PTT] to transmit; release [PTT] to
receive.
i
To return to simplex, push [SPLIT] momentarily.
D
Repeater tone frequency setting
Some repeaters require subaudible tones to be ac-
cessed. Subaudible tones are superimposed over your
normal signal and must be set in advance. The trans-
ceiver has 50 tones from 67.0 Hz to 254.1 Hz.
q
Select FM mode.
w
Push [TONE] for 1 sec. to tone frequency set mode.
e
Push [F-1•
Y
] or [F-2•
Z
] to select REPEATER
TONE item.
r
Rotate the main dial to select the desired repeater
tone frequency.
• Push [F-4•DEF] for 1 sec. to select the default setting.
t
Push [EXIT/SET] to return to the previous indica-
tion.
