Communication through Repeaters

Radios that are out of range and cannot communicate directly with each other in Direct Mode
Operation (DMO) can do it through the repeater. The repeater is a radio that repeats all communication
on a chosen channel, and as a result increases radios DMO range.

Figure 6: Communication through Repeaters

When the radio connects to a repeater, it plays a tone, displays the Repeater available message,
and shows an appropriate icon. When the radio loses connection with the repeater, it plays a tone,
displays the Repeater not available message, and the repeater icon is blinking.
