REPEATER FUNCTION (U.S.A./ CANADA ONLY)
This transceiver is capable of repeating signals originating
from either the VHF or UHF band. For example, a signal
received on the VHF band is retransmitted on the UHF
band. Similarly, a signal received on the UHF band is
retransmitted on the VHF band. You can choose Locked-
band Repeater mode or Cross-band Repeater mode.
Note:
◆ You cannot activate the Repeater function after switching ON the
DTSS or Page, after selecting VHF/VHF or UHF/UHF mode, or while
blanking a band display.
◆ Activating the Repeater function switches OFF Automatic Band
Change (A.B.C.) or Automatic Simplex Checker (ASC).
◆ The Time-Out Timer is locked at 3 minutes.

3 Press the left [BAND SEL]+[ ] to enter Cross-band
