REPEATER OPERATION

1750 Hz tone

(Europe and Italy versions only)
Some European repeaters require a 1750 Hz tone to be ac-
cessed. For such European repeaters, perform the following.
q Set the receive frequency (repeater output frequency).
w Set the shift direction of the transmit frequency. (–DUP or
DUP; see p. 22 for details.)
e While pushing [PTT], push and hold [CALL] for 1 to 2 sec.
to transmit a 1750 Hz tone burst signal.
• Pushing [PTT] 2 times quickly also transmits a 1750 Hz tone. Re-
lease [PTT] briefly, then push [PTT] again to talk in this case.
• If "OFF" appears, check the offset frequency (right section) or
shift direction (p. 22).
• The displayed frequency automatically changes to the transmit
frequency (repeater input frequency).
r Push and hold [PTT] to transmit.
t Release [PTT] to receive.
y Push and hold [SQL] to check whether the other station's
transmit signal can be directly received or not.

Offset frequency

When communicating through a repeater, the transmit fre-
quency is shifted from the receive frequency by an amount
determined by the offset frequency.
q Select VFO mode or desired memory channel to be pro-
grammed.
w Push [V/M] for 2 sec. to enter expanded set mode.
e Rotate [DIAL] until "OFFSET" appears.
• Turn the expanded set mode ON for selection. (p. 28)
• "OFFSET" disappears after 1 sec. and "OW" appears.
r While pushing [FUNC], rotate [DIAL] to set the desired off-
set.
t Push [V/M] to exit set mode.
