![19FTM-3200DR Operating ManualAdvanced OperationRepeater OperationThe FTM-3200DR includes the ARS (Automatic Repeater Shift) function which permits communication through repeaters automatically, by simply setting the receiver to the repeater frequency.1. Tune to the repeater frequency.2. Press the PTT to transmit. During transmission, radio waves having an 100.0 Hz* tone signal are emitted on the frequency lower than reception frequency by 5 MHz*. *: Depends on the transceiver version.Note: From the Setup Menu, you can change the repeater setting.RPT ARS 36 à Deactivates the ARS function.RPT FREQ 37 à Allows changing the repeater shift frequency offset.RPT SFT 38 à Allows setting the repeater shift direction.Checking the Repeater Uplink (Input) FrequencyIt often is helpful to be able to check the uplink (input) frequency of a repeater, to see if the calling station is within direct (“Simplex”) range.To do this, just press the [REV(DW)] key. You’ll notice that the display has shifted to the repeater uplink frequency. Press the [REV(DW)] key again to cause operation to revert to normal monitoring of the repeater downlink (output) frequency. While you are listening on the input frequency to the repeater using the [REV(DW)] key, the repeater offset icon will blink.BlinksApplication for FCC / IC FCC ID: K6620523X50 / IC: 511B-20523X50](https://usermanual.wiki/Yaesu-Musen/20523X50.User-Manual-1/User-Guide-2879959-Page-19.png)
![20Advanced OperationFTM-3200DR Operating ManualWeather Broadcast ReceptionThe FTM-3200R includes a unique feature which allows reception of weather broadcasts in the 160 MHz frequency range. Ten standard Weather Broadcast channels are preloaded into a special memory bank.To listen to a Weather Broadcast Channel:1. Press the Microphone’s [P4] button to recall the Weather Broadcast channels.Note: The [P4] key, one of the programma-ble keys, is assigned (default setting) as the “WX Broadcast” one-touch access key. Please note that if you change/assign another function to the [P4] key, one-touch access to the WX channel will be unavailable.2. Turn the DIAL knob to select the desired Weather Broadcast channel.3. If you wish to check the other channels for activity by scanning, just press the Micro-phone’s PTT switch.4. To exit to normal operation, press the [P4] button again. Operation will return to the VFO or Memory channel you were operating on before you began Weather Broadcast op-eration.LOCKP3P2P171482059BACD36P4LAMPDTMF MICROPHONEMH-48ABCJKLTUVGHIPQRSDEFMNOWXYZMICP4 keyPTTCH Frequency CH Frequency1 162.550 MHz 6 162.500 MHz2 162.400 MHz 7 162.525 MHz3 162.475 MHz 8 161.650 MHz4 162.425 MHz 9 161.775 MHz5 162.450 MHz 10 163.275 MHzSevere Weather Alert FeatureIn the event of extreme weather disturbances, such as storms and hurricanes, NOAA (theNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) sends a weather alert accompanied by a 1050 Hz tone and subsequent weather report on one of the NOAA weather channels.
