REPEATER OPERATION
I. Press the [FUNC] key, as needed, to select Operating Function Row 2 [V>M,
M>V,
RPT,
REV].
2. Press the [C](RPT) key to activate repeater operation. Pressing the [C](RPT) key causes
two important functions to become activated:
o The transmitter frequency will
be
shifted
by
a default value so as to access the
repeater input frequency;
o A repeater access tone will be superimposed on your signal, as many repeaters on
these bands use
CTCSS to prevent false activation
of
the repeater by random noise.
3.
If
the default repeater shifts and/or access tone are not appropriate for your area, they
may be set independently for each band. The
MENU
selections which pertain to these
functions are shown below.
o
To
set the CTCSS Tone, use
MENU
#12 (TONE
FREQ).
o
To
set the 29 MHz repeater shift, use
MENU
#40 (HF RPT SHIFT). See page 91.
o
To
set the 50 MHz repeater shift, use
MENU
#41
(50
RPT SHIFT). See page 91.
o
To
set the 144 MHz repeater shift, use
MENU
#42
(144
RPT SHIFT). See page 91.
o
To
set the 430 MHz repeater shift, use
MENU
#43
(430
RPT SHIFT). See page 91.
4.
One press
of
the [C](RPT) key will have set the FT-I 00 for "Minus Shift" operation.
In
this situation, you will observe the
"RP-"
indicator on the display.
If
your repeater uses
a positive shift (instead
of
negative), press the [C](RPT) key again; the
"RP+"
indica-
tor will replace the
"RP-"
indicator on the display.
5.
Set the FT -I
OO's
receiver to the repeater output (downlink) frequency.
6.
Close the PTT switch and speak into the microphone.
You
will observe that the trans-
mitted frequency has shifted according to the setting
of
the [C](RPT) key.
7.
Release the PTT switch to return to the
RECEIVE
mode.
8.
With repeater shift activated, you can temporarily reverse the transmit and receive
frequencies by pressing the
[D](REV) key. The
"RP-"
icon will blinks while "Reverse"
shift
is
activated. Press the [D](REV) key again to revert to the
"Normaf'
shift direc-
tion.
9.
On many transceiver versions, the Automatic Repeater Shift (ARS) feature
is
enabled
at the factory. This feature automatically activates the appropriate repeater shift when
you are operating inside the designated 144 MHz or
430 MHz
FM
repeater sub-bands
in
your country.
If
you wish to change the settings for the ARS, use
MENU
#44
(144
ARS) or
MENU
#45
(430
ARS) (see page 92).
