Previous view 6 D-STAR OPERATION Communication Form with the DR function With the DR function, the transceiver has three communication forms, as shown below. • Local area call: To call through your local area (access) repeater. • Gateway call: 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. • Simplex call: To call another station not using a repeater. Local area call Access repeater Hamacho repeater Hamacho area Gateway call Hirano repeater INTERNET Sapporo repeater Hirano area Simplex call Sapporo area NOTE: • Using the repeater list is required to use the DR function. (pp. 7-22 to 7-24) • 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. • The transceiver has a Time-Out Timer function for DV operation. The timer limits a continuous transmission. Warn- ing beeps will sound approximately 30 seconds before time-out and then again immediately before time-out. 6-4
