DuPlex oPerAtion

duplex operation allows the radio to transmit on a different
frequency to that which it receives allowing operation through
repeater stations. repeaters automatically re-transmit your
signal over a wider area, providing greatly increased range.
duplex operates only on channels 1-8 and 41-48. When
duplex is selected on these channels, the radio receives
on that channel but actually transmits 30 channels
higher.
