Near Repeater scan
The Near Repeater scan searches for up to 20
nearby repeaters by using your position data and the
repeater’s entered position data, and then lists the
repeaters.
L The Near Repeater scan continues, even if you turn OFF
the transceiver, and then turn it ON again during the scan.
L If your own position data is not being received from GPS
satellites, the last received position data is used.
NOTE: Even if your transceiver receives a repeater
signal, the repeater may not receive your signal,
because the repeater’s output power is higher than
your transceiver’s, and your signal does not reach
the repeater.
TIP: The DR scan scans the simplex frequencies in
the repeater list, in addition to D-STAR repeaters.
