Operation (cont.)
Repeat/Direct
The repeat/direct feature allows you to bypass the repeater and talk directly
to another portable radio. This is known as DIRECT operation. The transmit
frequency is the same as the receive frequency.
• In REPEAT operation, you talk through the repeater, which increases the
radio's operating range. The transmit frequency is not the same as the
receive frequency.
• If the repeat/direct feature is slaved to a mode, that mode is programmed
to either one or the other type of operation (direct or repeat).
• If the repeat/direct feature is programmed, through the RSS, to the three-
position toggle switch, one position on the switch will select repeat operation,
and another position will select direct operation.
• If the repeat/direct feature is programmed, by the RSS, to the keypad,
change the repeat/direct setting by doing the following:
1. Press the right arrow ( ) key until “DIR” appears on the display.
2. Press the key below “DIR.” The current talkaround state (“REPEATER
MODE” or “DIRECT MODE”) appears on the display for a few seconds.
Then, the display shows “RPTR” and “DIR.”
3. Press the key below the desired talkaround state (RPTR or DIR). The
radio automatically returns to the home display.
