Repeater Operation - Icom IC-W2A Instruction Manual

6 REPEATER OPERATION
@ General description
A repeater amplifies the received signal and transmits it with
a different frequency. When using a repeater, the transmit
frequency is therefore, shifted from the receive frequency by
the offset frequency.
1) Push [V MAIN] or [U MAIN] to select the desired operat-
ing band.
2) Set the receive frequency using the main dial or the
keyboard.
3) While pushing [F], push [)DUP] to select —duplex and
push it again for +duplex.
«"'—DUP" or "DUP" appears to indicate the transmit frequen-
cy for minus shift or plus shift respectively.
4) Push and hold [PTT] to transmit.
* The displayed frequency automatically changes to the repeat-
er input frequency.
© When the repeater requires a tone, see "Tone information" at
right.
5) Release [PTT] to receive.
6) Push and hold [MONI] to check whether the repeater in-
put frequency can be directly received or not.
Hf Tone information
SUBAUDIBLE TONE ENCODER
(Non-U.S.A. versions require an optional UT-63.)
1) Push [®T/P.B/T SQL] to turn ON the subaudible tone
encoder.
* To set the subaudible tone frequency, see the page at right
"Subaudible tone frequency."
2) Push [(®T/P.B/T SQL] 3 times until ""T"' disappears to
turn OFF the subaudible tone encoder.

DTMF TONES
While pushing [PTT], push the desired digit key to trans-
mit DTMF tones.
DTMF memory is equipped in the transceiver. Seep. 33
for details.
1750 Hz TONE CALL (IC-W2E only)
While pushing [PTT], push and hold [V MAIN] for 1 ~ 2 sec.
| to transmit a 1750 Hz tone.
