4 REPEATER AND DUPLEX OPERATION Accessing a repeater DDChecking the Repeater input signal You can check whether or not another station's transmit signal can be received directly (not through a repeater) by listening to the repeater input frequency. zzHold down [MONI] to listen to the repeater input frequency. LLWhile monitoring, the status indicator lights green, and an S/RF meter dot blinks. LLWhile monitoring, the displayed frequency automatically changes to the transceiver transmit frequency (repeater input frequency). LLWhen the other station's signal can be directly received, move to a non-repeater frequency, and use simplex (Duplex OFF). DDUsing the 1750 Hz tone burst A 1750 Hz tone is required to access many European repeaters. Step 1. Selecting "t-CALL" 1. Push [SET] to enter the Set mode. ••A Set mode item is displayed. 2. Repeatedly push [SET] to select "dtmF-t." 3. Rotate [DIAL] to select "t-CALL." 4. Push [V/M/C] to exit the Set mode. Step 2. Using the 1750 Hz tone burst 1. Set the receive frequency (repeater output frequency). 2. Set the duplex direction of the transmit frequency (p. 4-4). 3. While holding down [PTT], push [MONI] to transmit a 1750 Hz tone burst signal. ••The displayed frequency automatically changes to the transmit frequency (repeater input frequency). LLIf "OFF" is displayed, check the frequency offset or duplex direction status (p. 4-4). TIP: For only the EUR version: Push [PTT] briefly and release, and then hold down [PTT] to transmit a 1750 Hz tone burst signal. 4. Hold down [PTT] to transmit, release [PTT] to receive. LLHold down [MONI] to check whether the other station's transmit signal can be received or not, by listening on the repeater input frequency. 4-3
