DUsing "Your Call Sign"

The "Your Call Sign" memory saves individual
or repeater station call signs. When you select
the call sign for the "TO" (Destination) setting,
you can make a Gateway call. When you call an
individual station through a gateway, the signal
is automatically sent to the last repeater that the
individual station accessed.
Therefore, even if you do not know where the
individual station is located, you can make a call.
NOTE: If the repeater, set in "FROM" (Access
repeater) has no Gateway call sign, you cannot
make a gateway call.
Example: Selecting "Rick" from "Your Call Sign."
1. Touch "TO" to select, and then touch "TO" again.
2. Touch "Your Call Sign."
• Displays the YOUR CALL SIGN screen.
3. Touch your destination station.
(Example: Rick)
• Returns to the DR screen, and the selected
name is displayed in "TO."
TIP: After selecting a destination repeater or
station, you can select another repeater or
station preset in your transceiver by rotating
