Previous view 6 D-STAR OPERATION "FROM" (Access repeater) setting (Continued) DDUsing the DR scan The DR scan scans frequencies to find a signal on a repeater or a simplex frequency. You can use two kinds of DR scans, Normal scan and Near Repeater scan. Normal scan To quickly find a repeater, the Normal scan skips repeaters that are not specified as an access repeater. (The "USE (FROM)" setting is set to "NO" (SKIP is set) on the repeater list.) Near Repeater scan The Near Repeater scan searches for up to 20 nearby repeaters by using your location and the repeater's location, and then lists the repeaters. NOTE: Even if your transceiver receives a signal from a repeater, the repeater may not receive your signal, because the repeater's output power is higher than your transceiver's. For your reference: • Touching [SCAN] for 1 second starts the last used scan. • The DR scan scans the simplex frequencies in the repeater list, in addition to a D-STAR repeaters. Blinks When receiving a signal on 433.300 MHz. Example: Select the "Hirano" repeater in Japan using the DR scan. qqTouch [DR]. • Opens the DR screen. wwTouch the Function group icon one or more times. • Selects the D-1 menu. eeTouch [SCAN]. • Opens the DR scan setting window. rrTouch the desired scan. • Normal: Searches for repeaters whose "USE (FROM)" setting is set to "YES." • Near Repeater (ALL): S earches for up to 20 nearby DV or FM repeaters. (Total 40 repeaters) • Near Repeater (DV): Searches for up to 20 nearby DV repeaters. • Near Repeater (FM): Searches for up to 20 nearby FM repeaters. • The selected scan starts. • The frequency decimal point and "FROM" blink while scanning. • The scan pauses when a signal is received. The scan resumes the same as other scans. (p. 12-14) The repeaters are sequentially displayed. Blinks While DR scanning ttWhen the transceiver receives a signal from a repeater, the scan stops, then touch [SCAN]. • The DR scan is cancelled. While receiving a signal from a repeater DR scan setting window "Hirano" repeater is selected in "FROM." 6-20

Using the DR scan

The DR scan scans frequencies to ﬁnd a signal on a

repeater or a simplex frequency.

You can use two kinds of DR scans, Normal scan and

Near Repeater scan.

Normal scan

To quickly ﬁnd a repeater, the Normal scan skips re-

peaters that are not speciﬁed as an access repeater.

(The “USE (FROM)” setting is set to “NO” (SKIP is set)

on the repeater list.)

Near Repeater scan

The Near Repeater scan searches for up to 20 nearby

repeaters by using your location and the repeater’s lo-

cation, and then lists the repeaters.

Touch [DR].

• Opens the DR screen.

Touch the Function group icon one or more times.

• Selects the D-1 menu.

Touch [SCAN].

• Opens the DR scan setting window.

Touch the desired scan.

•

Normal:

Searches

for

repeaters

whose “USE (FROM)” set-

ting is set to “YES.”

•

Near Repeater (ALL):

Searches for up to 20 near-

by DV or FM repeaters.

(Total 40 repeaters)

•

Near Repeater (DV):

Searches for up to 20 near-

by DV repeaters.

•

Near Repeater (FM):

Searches for up to 20 near-

by FM repeaters.

NOTE:

Even if your transceiver receives a signal from a

repeater, the repeater may not receive your signal,

because the repeater’s output power is higher than

your transceiver’s.

For your reference:

• Touching [SCAN] for 1 second starts the last used

scan.

• The DR scan scans the simplex frequencies in the

repeater list, in addition to a D-STAR repeaters.

Blinks

When receiving a signal on 433.300 MHz.

• The selected scan starts.

• The frequency decimal point and “FROM” blink while

scanning.

• The scan pauses when a signal is received. The scan

resumes the same as other scans. (p. 12-14)

While DR scanning

Blinks

The repeaters

are sequential-

ly displayed.

When the transceiver receives a signal from a re-

peater, the scan stops, then touch [SCAN]

• The DR scan is cancelled.

“Hirano” repeater is selected in “FROM.”

While receiving a signal from a repeater

Example: Select the “Hirano” repeater in Japan using

the DR scan.
