19REPEATER OPERATION5■ About RepeaterTo communicate with another station in a area where radiowaves cannot be directly received, you can use a repeateras the relay.In repeater operation, the transmit frequency is different fromthe receive frequency. This is called duplex operation.The frequencies are pre-programmed into an operating chan-nel for duplex operation. Ask your dealer for details.qPush [] or [] to select a channel that has been pro-grammed for repeater use.• The frequencies are pre-programmed into channels using theCS-G80 cloning software. Ask your dealer for details.wIf required, push [FUNC](*) and then [TONE](1) one ormore times to activate the subaudible tone encoder.• See page 20 for subaudible tone setting details.ePush [PTT] to transmit; release to receive.rHold down [MONI] to check whether the other station’stransmit signal can be directly received or not.When the signal can be directly received, move to the sim-plex operation channel.D Talk Around functionThe Talk Around function equalizes the transmit frequencyto the receive frequency for transceiver-to-transceiver com-munication, Duplex operation temporarily changes to simplexoperation.This function is convenient at the following situations:- When the repeater is broken down and is not usable.- When you can use only the down link frequency (receive).q Push [] or [] to select a channel that has been pro-grammed for repeater use.w Push [FUNC](M), and then [T/A](4) to turn ON the TalkAround function.• “ ” appears.e Push [PTT] to transmit; release to receive on the samefrequency.• The transmit frequency is shifted to the receive frequency.Station A Station BRepeater155.300 MHz154.700 MHz 154.700 MHz155.300 MHzUplinkDownlink(transmit freq.)(receive freq.)Appears
