Changing the Default Repeater Shifts
If you travel to a different region, you may need to change the default repeater shift so as to
ensure compatibility with local operating requirements.
To do this, follow the procedure below:
1. Press the SET key momentarily to enter the Set mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Menu #36 SHIFT.
3. Press the DIAL knob momentarily, then rotate the DIAL knob to select the
new repeater shift magnitude.

normal operation.0.
If you just have one odd split that you need to program, don’t change the
default repeater shifts using this Menu item. Enter the transmit and receive
frequencies separately, as shown in Store Independent Transmit
Frequencies on page 34.
