It has a built-in GPS receiver to transmit and receive position data. 7-5 Previous view D-STAR INTRODUCTION About the DR (D-STAR Repeater) mode The DR (D-STAR Repeater) mode is one mode you can use for D-STAR repeater operation. In this mode, you can select the preprogrammed repeater or frequency in “FROM” (the access repeater or simplex), and UR call sign in “TO” (destination), as shown to the right. Destination (Repeater/Station) NOTE: If the repeater, set to “FROM” (Access Repeater) has no Gateway call sign, you cannot make a gateway call. Access repeater or Simplex In the DR mode 7-6 Previous view D-STAR INTRODUCTION Communication Form in the DR mode In the DR mode, the transceiver has three communication forms, as shown below. • Local area call: To call through your local area (access) repeater. • Gateway call: To call through your local area (access) repeater, repeater gateway and the internet to your destination repeater or individual station’s last used repeater, using call sign routing. • Simplex call: To call another station not using a repeater. Access repeater Local area call Hamacho repeater Hamacho area Gateway call Hirano repeater Sapporo repeater INTERNET Hirano area Sapporo area Simplex call NOTE: • Programming the repeater list is required for DR mode operation. (pp. ??-?? to ??-??) • Before operating in the DV mode, be sure to check whether the repeater is busy, or not. If the repeater is busy, wait until it is clear, or ask for a “break” using a method acceptable to your local procedures. • The transceiver has a Time-Out Timer function for digital repeater operation. The timer limits a continuous transmission to approximately 10 minutes. Warning beeps will sound approximately 30 seconds before time-out and then again immediately before time-out. 7-7 Previous view Section 11 MEMORY OPERATION General description ...............................................................11-2 D Memory channel contents .....................................................11-2 Selecting a Memory channel ................................................11-3 D Selecting in the VFO mode ...................................................11-3 D Selecting in the Memory mode..............................................11-3 Selecting a Call channel .......................................................11-4 Programming a Memory channel ........................................11-5 D Programming in the VFO mode .............................................11-5 D Programming in the Memory mode .......................................11-5 D Programming the Call channels ............................................11-5 Clearing a Memory channel ..................................................11-7 Copying Memory contents ...................................................11-8 D Copying in the Memory mode ...............................................11-8 D Copying in the VFO mode .....................................................11-8 Programming a Memory name ............................................11-9 Selecting a Memory display type .........................................11-11 Memo pad function................................................................11-12 D Writing the displayed contents into the Memo pads ..............11-12 D Calling up the Memo pads.....................................................11-13 11-1 Previous view 11 MEMORY OPERATION General description The transceiver has a total of 495 Memory channels (99 channels in each of 5 memory banks, A to E), 6 Scan Edge channels (3 pairs) and two Call channels (C1/C2) each for the 144 and 430 MHz frequency bands. The Memory mode is useful to quickly select oftenused frequencies. While in the memory mode, all 503 Memory channels are tunable, which means the programmed frequency can be temporarily tuned with the Dial. When you tune a Memory channel without storing, and then go back to the channel again, the original stored frequency is displayed. In the Memory mode, touch just above MHz area on the display, and then select the desired band. Then rotate the Dial to select the frequency to be stored.
