NTERNET
The FT-2900R can be used to access a "node" (repeater or base station) which is tied into
the Vertex Standard WIRES™ (Wide-Coverage Internet Repeater Enhancement System)
network. Details may be found at the WiRES-II Web site: http://www.vxstd.com/en/
wiresinfo-en/. This feature may also be used to access other systems, as described below.

operator if you don't know the access number in the network). Now press the PTT
switch to exit from the selection mode.
3. With the Internet Connection feature activated (as in step 1 above), the FT-2900R will
generate a brief (0.1 second) DTMF tone according to your selection in step 2. This
DTMF tone is sent at the beginning of every transmission to establish or maintain the
link to the local WiRES™ node operating in the SRG mode.
4. To disable the Internet Connection feature, press the [
notation will disappear from the display).
If other users report that you always have a DTMF "beep" at the beginning of
each transmission, and you are not operating in conjunction with Internet access,
disable this function via step (4) above.

You may access other Internet Link Systems (including WiRES™ in the "FRG" mode) that
use a DTMF string for access.
Programming the FRG code
Load the DTMF tones which you wish to use for Internet-link access into a Internet Memory
