The reverse function exchanges a separate receive and
transmission frequency.  So, while using a repeater, you
can manually check the strength of a signal that you
receive directly from the other station.  If the station’s
signal is strong, both stations should move to a simplex
frequency and free up the repeater.

       

To swap the transmit and receive frequencies:

Press [REV] to switch the Reverse function ON (or
OFF).

•  “R” appears when the function is ON.

◆

You can turn the Reverse function ON when you are operating in

Simplex Mode.  However, it does not change the Transmission/
Reception frequencies.

◆

If pressing [REV] places the reception frequency outside the

allowable range, an error tone sounds and the function does not
operate.

◆

If pressing [REV] places the transmission frequency outside the

allowable range, pressing Mic [PTT] causes an error tone to
sound and transmission is inhibited.

◆

You cannot switch Reverse ON or OFF while transmitting.

While using a repeater, the ASC function periodically
checks the strength of the signal you are receiving from
the other station.  If the station’s signal is strong enough
to allow direct contact without a repeater, the “

”

indicator starts blinking.

Press [REV] (1s) to switch the function ON (or OFF).

• “

” appears when the function is ON.

• While direct contact is possible, “

” blinks.
