Repeater Operation

The FTM-3100R/E includes the ARS (Automatic Repeater Shift) function, which permits
communication through repeaters automatically, by simply setting the receiver to the re-
peater frequency.
1. Tune to the repeater frequency.
2. Press the PTT to transmit.
During transmission, radio waves having an 100.0 Hz* tone signal are emitted on the
frequency offset from the receive frequency by 0.6 MHz*.
*: Depends on the transceiver version.
Note: From the Setup Menu, you can change the repeater setting.

Checking the Repeater Uplink (Input) Frequency
It is often helpful to be able to check the uplink (input) frequency of a repeater, to see if
the calling station is within direct ("Simplex") range.
To do this, just press the [ REV ( DW )] key. You'll
notice that the display has shifted to the repeat-
er uplink frequency. Press the [ REV ( DW )] key
again to cause operation to revert to normal
monitoring of the repeater downlink (output)
frequency. While listening on the repeater input
frequency using the [ REV ( DW )] key, the repeat-
er offset icon will blink.

Tone Calling (1750 Hz)

If your transceiver is FTM-3100E (European version), press and hold in the program
key [ P4 ] of the microphone (MH-48) to generates a 1750 Hz burst tone to access the
European repeater. The transmitter will automatically be activated, and a 1750 Hz audio
tone will be superimposed on the carrier. Once access to the repeater has been gained,
you may release the [ P4 ] key, and use the PTT for activating the transmitter thereafter.
