What's in this update
MCU 2.06 / DSP 1.30
- 1750-HZ TONE BURST FOR EU REPEATERS: Set PITCH to 1750. This adds an 0.5-second tone burst at start of any transmission. You can also hold PITCH indefinitely anytime after starting a transmission. This applies even if the receiver was unsquelched, or if PL TONE was set to OFF, as long as the selected tone is 1750 Hz.
- PL TONE DEVIATION RANGE ADJUSTED FOR 1750-HZ TONE: The range in this case is 0.7-3.0 kHz, with a default of 1.8. To adjust PL tone deviation for the 1750-Hz tone, first select 1750 Hz using the PITCH control, then locate the FM DEV menu entry and tap 1 (PRE) to change the menu entry name to PL DEV. Adjust the parameter as required.
