KEYPAD DIRECT ENTRYThe keypad allows you to make various entries
depending on which mode the transceiver is in.
In VFO or Memory Recall mode, use the keypad to
select a frequency {page 45} or memory channel number
{page 28}.  Press [ENT] first.
In Menu mode, use the keypad to select a menu item.
For example, pressing [1], [4], [1] in sequence selects
Menu 1Ð4Ð1 (DATA BAND).
To manually send a DTMF number, press and hold the
PTT switch, then press the keys on the keypad
{page 41}.You can also use the keypad to program a memory
channel name {pages 29 and 42}, Power-ON message
{page 50}, or other character strings.  For example, each
press of [TNC] switches entry as A, B, C, a, b, c,  then 2.
Press [DUAL] to switch 0 and space.  Press [ENT] to
switch among the special ASCII characters.
The selectable special characters are listed below:
Note:  Pressing [UP]/ [DWN] allows you to select more special ASCII
characters than above.

OPERATING THROUGH REPEATERS
Repeaters, which are often installed and maintained by
radio clubs, are usually located on mountain tops or
other elevated locations.  Generally they operate at
higher ERP (Effective Radiated Power) than a typical
station.  This combination of elevation and high ERP
allows communications over much greater distances
than communications without using repeaters.
Most repeaters use a receive and transmit frequency
pair with a standard or non-standard offset (odd-split).  In
addition, some repeaters must receive a tone from the
transceiver to allow it to access.  For details, consult
your local repeater reference.Offset Programming Flow
If you store the above data in a memory channel, you
need not reprogram every time.  See ÒMEMORY
CHANNELSÓ {page 26}.
Select a band.
qwertySelect a receive frequency.
Select an offset direction.
Select an offset frequency. 
(Only when programming odd-split 
repeater frequencies)

PROGRAMMING OFFSETFirst select band A or B by pressing [A/B].  Then, if
necessary, press [F], [A/B] to recall the sub-band.
n
Selecting Offset DirectionSelect whether the transmit frequency will be higher
(+) or lower (Ð) than the receive frequency.
Press [F], [MHz] to switch the offset direction.¥ Ò+Ó or ÒÐÓ appears to indicate which offset direction is
selected.
¥ To program Ð7.6 MHz offset on the TH-D7E (UHF only),
repeatedly press [F], [MHz] until Ò
Ó appears.
If the offset transmit frequency falls outside the
allowable range, transmitting is inhibited.  Use one of
the following methods to bring the transmit frequency
within the band limits:¥ Move the receive frequency further inside the band.
¥ Change the offset direction.Note:  While using an odd-split memory channel or transmitting, you
cannot change the offset direction.

Selecting Offset FrequencyTo access a repeater which requires an odd-split
frequency pair, change the offset frequency from the
default which is used by most repeaters.  The default
offset frequency on the VHF band is 600 kHz no
matter which market version; the default on the UHF
band is 5 MHz (TH-D7A) or 1.6 MHz (TH-D7E).
1Press [F], [5] to select ÒFÐ5 (OFFSET)Ó.
2Press [UP]/ [DWN] to select the appropriate offset
frequency.
¥ The selectable range is from 0.00 MHz to 29.95 MHz
in steps of 50 kHz.
3Press [OK] to complete the setting.TH-D7E Only:  If you have selected Ò 
Ó for the offset direction, you
cannot change the default (7.6 MHz).
Note:  After changing the offset frequency, the new offset frequency
will also be used by Automatic Repeater Offset.STACON
