■ Accessing repeaters

This section describes how to check whether or not you can
access your local area repeater (Access repeater), and if
your signal is successfully sent to a destination repeater.
TIP: If your call sign (MY) has not been set, or your
call sign and equipment have not been registered at a
D-STAR repeater, see pages 9 ~ 12.
