Repeater Operation; I General - Icom IC-2725E Instruction Manual

I General

Repeaters allow you to extend the operational range of your
radio because a repeater has much higher output power than
the typical transceiver.
Normally, a repeater has indipendent frequencies for each re-
ceiver and transmitter.
A subaudible tone may also be required to access a repeater
Reference amateur radio hand books and local ham maga-
zines for details of local repeaters such as repeater input/out-
put frequencies and locations.
Repeater example;
Receives the 145.950 MHz signal
and the detected audio signals are
transmitted on 145.30 MHz simulta-
neously.
Station A:
Tx: 145.350 MHz
Rx: 145.950 MHz

Rx: 145.950 MHz
• Repeater operation flow chart
Setp 1:
Set the desired band to operate the repeater.
Setp 2:
Set the desired receive frequency (repeater output frequency).
Setp 3:
Set the duplex (shifting) direction (– duplex or +duplex).
- Set the offset frequency (shifting value), if required.
Setp 4:
Set the subaudible tone (repeater tone) encoder function ON.
- Set the subaudible tone frequency, if required.
• Repeater settings can be stored into a memory channel.
