n Automatic Repeater Offset (K and E Types Only)
This function automatically selects an offset direction and
activates the Tone function, according to the frequency
that you have selected. To obtain an up-to-date band
plan for repeater offset direction, contact your national
Amateur Radio association.
1 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 401.
2 Set the ARO to ON.
3 Press [BAND SEL A] to select the A band.
4 Press [VFO] to select VFO mode.

6 Press [PTT] to start a call.
• You will be transmitting on an offset frequency value
determined from your offset setting value and an offset
direction depending on your selected frequency. Refer
to the settings below for offset directions:
K Type:
Under 145.100 MHz:
No offset (Simplex
operation)
145.100 ~ 145.499 MHz: Minus (–) offset

TRANsMITTING A 750 Hz TONE
Most repeaters in Europe require that a transceiver
transmit a 1750 Hz tone. On a E type model, simply
pressing Microphone [CALL] causes it to transmit a 1750
Hz tone. It is also possible to program [1750] on the front
panel as a PF key for transmitting a 1750 Hz tone.
Note: The transceiver continuously transmits a 1750 Hz tone until
you release Microphone [CALL] or PF key(1750).
Some repeaters in Europe must receive continuous
signals for a certain period of time, following a 1750 Hz
tone. This transceiver is also capable of remaining in the
transmit mode for 2 seconds after transmitting a 1750 Hz
tone.
1 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 402.
2 Set the tone to ON or OFF.
• When set to ON, the 1750 Hz tone will transmit. When set
to OFF, the tone will not be transmitted.
Note: While remaining in the transmit mode, the transceiver does not
continuously transmit a 1750 Hz tone.
