D Repeater operation
A repeater amplifies received signals and retransmits
them at a different frequency. When using a repeater,
the transmit frequency is shifted from the receive fre-
quency by an offset frequency. A repeater can be
accessed using split frequency operation with the
shift frequency set to the repeater's offset frequency.
➀
Set the offset frequency and turn ON the quick split
function in initial set mode in advance (p. 52).
• If the quick split function is turned OFF, both transmit
and receive must be set separately.
➁
Push [MODE] one or more times to select FM
mode, then set the receive frequency.
➂
Select a suitable tone frequency or the 1750 Hz
tone burst in quick set mode.
➥ Push [DISPLAY] for 2 sec., then push [MENU]
one or more times to select "Q4 RPTR TONE."

not appear.
➥ Rotate the main dial to set a subaudible tone fre-
quency or the 1750 Hz tone burst function.
➥ Push [DISPLAY] to exit quick set mode.
