REPEATER (DUPLEX) Operation
Shift Direction and Offset frequency setting
Conventional repeaters are operated in the DUPLEX mode.
It receives an incoming signal (UP-LINK) on one frequency
and re-transmits on another (DOWN-LINK). The difference
between these two frequencies is called the offset frequency.
If the UP-LINK frequency is higher than the DOWN-LINK
frequency, the direction is positive, and if it is lower, the shift
direction is negative. The offset is variable between 0 to 99.995
MHz on this unit.

Press the F key. While the F icon stays on the display, press
MHz key. The display shows the current status of shift direc-
tion and offset frequency. The default value is 0.60 MHz (600
kHz) in the negative direction. Press MHz key until the de-
sired offset direction is set. If SIMPLEX mode (without chang-
ing transmit and receive frequency) is desired, select the po-
sition where both - and + icons disappeared.
