73FTM-10SR OPERATING MANUAL
REPEATER OPERATION
The FTM-10SR includes a host of convenient features that makes operation on amateur
repeaters both efficient and enjoyable.
The FTM-10SR offers three methods of setting up split-frequency operation on repeaters:
Manual selection of preset repeater shifts (Standard Repeater Shift);
Automatic Repeater Shift (ARS), providing automatic activation of repeater shifts while
operating within designated repeater frequency subbands.
Independently stored transmit and receive frequencies (typically not corresponding to es-
tablished repeater frequency shifts).
Standard Repeater Shift
To activate the standard shift manually, you may use the Menu mode:
1. Press and hold the
[
VOL/SEL
]
key for one second to activate the Menu mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Menu Item “F25 RPT
MODE”.
3. Press the key to enable selection of this Menu Item.
4. Rotate the DIAL knob to select desired shift direction
(RPTR-, RPTR+, or RPTR OFF).
5. Press the
[
VOL/SEL
]
key momentarily to save the new setting and exit to normal op-
eration.
Your FTM-10SR has been configured, at the factory, for the repeater offset customary in
your country. For the 144 MHz band offset will be 600 kHz; on the 430 MHz band, the
offset may be 1.6 MHz, 7.6 MHz, or 5 MHz (USA version). You can change the offset using
the following procedure, if needed for vacation travel or other purposes:
1. Press and hold the
[
VOL/SEL
]
key for one second to activate the Menu mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Menu Item “F26 RPT SFT”.
3. Press the key to enable selection of this Menu Item.
4. Rotate the DIAL knob to set the desired offset. Note that
the resolution of the “Standard” repeater shift is to the near-
est 50 kHz multiple.
5. Press the
[
VOL/SEL
]
key to save the new setting and exit to normal operation.
Note: Do not use this procedure for programming of an “odd split” type repeater pair! The
process for programming odd splits is shown on page 42.
