Switching Between Repeater or Direct Operation Button

When and where to use:
The Repeater Operation increases the radio coverage area by connecting with other radios through a
repeater. The transmit and receive frequencies are different.
The Direct or "talkaround operation" allows you to bypass the repeater and connect directly to another
radio. The transmit and receive frequencies are the same.
Procedure:
Press the preprogrammed Repeater/Direct switch to toggle between talkaround and repeater
modes.
The display shows RPTR MOD if the radio is currently in Repeater mode.
The display shows DIR MODE and the Talkaround icon if the radio is currently in Direct mode (during
conventional operation only).

Monitor Feature

The monitor feature is used to make sure that a channel is clear before transmitting.
The lack of static on a digital channel when the users switch from analog to digital radios is not an
indication that the radio is malfunctioning.
Digital technology quiets the transmission by removing the noise from the signal and allows only the
clear voice or data information to be heard.
