Operating through repeaters 45
Repeaters which are often installed and maintained by radio clubs are usually located on mountain tops or other elevated locations they generally operate at higher erp effective radiated power than a typical station this combination of elevation and high erp allows communications over much greater distances than communicating without using repeaters most repeaters use a receive and transmit frequency pair with a standard or non standard offset odd split in addition some repeaters must receive a tone from the transceiver to be accessed for details consult your local repeater reference 45
If you store all the above data in a memory channel you will not need to reprogram the parameters every time refer to memory channels page 41 46

Scan is a useful function for hands off monitoring of your favorite frequencies by becoming comfortable with all types of scan you will increase your operating efficiency this transceiver provides the following types of scans 73
Band scan 74
Press vfo 2 turn the tuning control to select the frequency outside of the program scan frequency range 74
The transceiver scans the entire band of the frequency you selected for example if you are operating and receiving at 144 25 mhz it scans all the frequencies available for the 2 m band refer to receiver vfo frequency range in the specifications page 122 when the current vfo receive frequency is outside the program scan frequency range page 59 the transceiver scans the entire frequency range available for the current vfo 74
