Apo-Auto Power Off; Tone-Burst-Frequency; Busy-Channel-Lock-Out; Theft Alarm - Alinco DR-135TMkIII Instruction Manual

APO-Auto Power OFF

This feature will automatically shut off the transceiver. It is useful for mobile operation to avoid
draining the car battery. If there is no activity or use of the radio, it will turn off automatically after
30 minutes followed by a beep sound.
1.
Default is APO-OFF.
2.
Rotate dial to select APO-ON to activate the
function.
Tone-Burst Frequency
This is to access Tone-Burst repeaters which require a certain pitch of audible tone to activate
"sleeping" repeaters. Usually, a repeater system does not require the tone once the repeater is
activated.
1.
The default is TB-1750, which is 1750 Hz tone.
2.
It is selectable from 1750, 2100, 1000, 1450 Hz.
See ADVANCED OPERATION chapter (P.33) for operation.

Busy-Channel-Lock-Out

This function prohibits transmission as long as there is a signal on the receiving frequency.
The default is BCLO-OF, which is the off position. By activating this function, the radio transmits
only when:
1.
No signal is received (BUSY icon is gone) on
the receiving frequency.
2.
Tone-squelch is opened by the corresponding
CTCSS tone of the receiving signal.
3.
As above, with DCS code.
Otherwise a beep sounds but the unit does not transmit even
when the PTT is pressed.

Theft Alarm

Default is SCR-OFF. Select ON or DLY to activate the func-
tion. When the SCR-ON is selected, 100 MHz and 100 kHz
order decimal points will appear on the display.
The operation of this transceiver feature is explained later
(P.36).
