Press the Microphone's PTT button, hold it approx7cm from your mouth and speak normally into the microphone.The icon will light. Release the PTT button to endthe transmission and listen for a reply.UHF CB Repeaters are used to retransmit or relay your signal. Repeaters will extend the range of your radio andovercome the shielding effect caused by solid obstructions. In normal Simplex operation, your radio transmits onone particular frequency and receives on that same frequency. If there is a barrier that partially blocks yourtransmitted signal, the probability of another radio receiving the signal is very slim. Hills, tall buildings, metallicstructures, ... etc. tend to act as a screen between radios.The Signal coming from your radio is received by the Repeater Station and then retransmitted at the same timeon another channel. This operation is called "Duplexing".For example,CH01 on Duplex Mode will Receive on CH 01 but Transmit on CH31CH02 on Duplex Mode will Receive on CH 02 but Transmit on CH32 etc ....If you transmit on CH01 Duplex mode, you are actually transmitting on CH31, the repeater station down-convertsyour signal and retransmits on CH01.OperationUNIDEN UHF CB Transceiver10PTT
