Repeater Operation; I General - Icom IC-T2H Instruction Manual

I General

When using a repeater, the transmit frequency is shifted from
the receive frequency by the offset frequency. It is convenient
to program repeater information into memory channels (p.
19).
➀
Set the receive frequency (repeater output frequency).
➁
Push [DUP] one or more times to select –DUP or DUP.
• "–DUP" indicates the transmit frequency is shifted down; "DUP"
indicates the transmit frequency is shifted up.
• When the auto repeater function is in use (USA version only) this
selection and step ➂ are not necessary (p. 17).
➂
Push [ T] to activate the subaudible tone encoder, ac-
C
cording to repeater requirements.
• "T" appears.
• Refer to the table of subaudible tone frequencies on the following
page.
➃
Push and hold [PTT] to transmit.
• The displayed frequency automatically changes to the transmit
frequency (repeater input frequency).
• If "oFF" appears, check the offset frequency (p. 16).
➄
Release [PTT] to receive.
➅
Push and hold [ ] to check whether the other station's
transmit signal can be directly received or not.

REPEATER OPERATION

D Tone information
Some repeaters require a tone to be accessed. In this case,
precede step ➃ at left with the required tone.
DTMF TONES
While pushing [PTT], push the desired digit key(s) to transmit
DTMF tones.
• The transceiver has 5 DTMF memory channels. See p. 22 for de-
tails.
1750 Hz TONE
While pushing [PTT], push and hold [
transmit a 1750 Hz tone signal.
✔ Convenient
Tone scan function: When you don't know the subaudible
tone used for a repeater, the tone scan is convenient for de-
tecting the tone frequency.
Push and hold [SC] to activate the tone scan. See p. 27 for
more details.
