■FM Repeater operation
A repeater receives transmitted signals and retrans-
mits them on a different frequency. The transmit fre-
quency is shifted from the receive frequency by a pre-
set frequency offset.
In duplex operation, the transceiver’s frequency offset
is set to the same as that of the repeater. (p. 10-12)
DRepeater frequency setting
Push [V/MHz]qto select the VFO mode.
Push [FM/DV]wseveral times to select the FM
mode.
Rotate [DIAL] to set the receive frequency (repeatere
output frequency).
• The frequency changes according to the preset tuning
steps. See the page 23 on the printed manual for de-
tails.
Only USA and Korean versions have an Auto
Repeater function:
When the function is turned ON, steps rand t
are not necessary.*
(Default for USA version : ON (DUP))
(Default for Korean version : ON)
The Auto Repeater function can be turned OFF in
“Auto Repeater” on the MENU screen.
(MENU > Function > Auto Repeater)
See page 10-52 for details.
Set the duplex offset direction. (p. 1-5)r
• “DUP–” or “DUP+” appears.
Turn ON the repeater tone.t(See page 30 on the print-
ed manual.)
• “TONE” appears.
• The tone frequency can be set in the “REPEATER TONE”
screen. 88.5 Hz is set by default. (p. 10-12)
Communicate in the normal way.y
*For USA version, the Auto repeater function turns ON the
duplex operation only. To turn ON the repeater tone, you
should manually set as step t, or select “ON (DUP, TONE)”
in “Auto Repeater” on the MENU screen. (p. 10-52)
Information✓
The frequency offset (amount of shift) and the repeater
tone frequency are set in “Offset Freq” and “Repeater
Tone” of the MENU screen. (p. 10-12)

■1750 Hz tone
To access most European repeaters, the transceiver
must transmit a 1750 Hz tone. For such European re-
peaters, perform the following.
• This tone can also be used as a ‘Call signal.’
For only the ID-31E:
Push [PTT] briefly, then hold down [PTT] to transmit
a 1750 Hz tone burst signal.
Push D-pad(q) to select the root item (“DTMF/T-
CALL”), and then push D-pad(Ent).

Rotate [DIAL] to set the receive frequency (repeatert
output frequency).
Set the duplex offset direction. (p. 1-5)y
• “DUP–” or “DUP+” appears.
While holding down [PTT], push [SQL] to transmit au
1750 Hz tone signal.
• If “OFF BAND” appears, check the offset frequency or
shift direction. (pp. 1-4, 1-5)
• While transmitting, the displayed frequency automati-
cally changes to the transmit frequency (repeater input
frequency).
Hold down [SQL] to check whether the other sta-i
tion’s transmit signal can be received directly or not,
by listening on the repeater input frequency.
• While monitoring, the TX/RX indicator lights green, and
the S/RF meter dot blinks.
• While monitoring, the displayed frequency automatically
changes to the transmit frequency (repeater input fre-
quency).
• If you can hear the other station, you may want to change
to the Simplex mode and contact directly.
Push [PTT] to transmit.o
!0 Release [PTT] to receive.

DR MODE <PREPARATION>
To begin the digital mode communication except for
the DR mode, you can use the VFO mode, Memory
mode and Call channel mode.
This manual describes focusing on the DR mode op-
eration which can be set up easily, and if you want to
use other mode, see the procedures as described to
the right.
For a Local area call or Gateway call:
Set the access repeater’s frequency. (p. 23 on theq
printed manual)
Set the frequency offset. (p. 1-4)w
Set the Duplex direction. (p. 1-5)e
Set the call signs. (p. 3-22)r
For a Simplex call:
Set the operating frequency.q
Set the call sign. (p. 3-21)w
To begin the digital mode communication except for the DR mode
IMPORTANT!
• The repeater list, described in this manual, may differ from your transceiver’s preset contents.
• Although the Japanese repeaters are used in the setting examples, the Japanese repeater node (port) letters
are different from other country’s.
Be sure to add a repeater node letter as the 8th digit in the call sign field after a repeater call sign, according to
the repeater frequency band, as shown below.
1200 MHz : A (B in Japan)
430 MHz : B (A in Japan)
144 MHz : C (no D-STAR®repeaters in Japan)

■D-STAR®INTRODUCTION
• In the original D-STAR®(Digital Smart Technologies
for Amateur Radio) plan, JARL envisioned a system
of repeaters grouped together into Zones.
• The transceiver can be operated in the digital voice
mode, including low-speed data operation, for both
transmit and receive. It can also be connected to a
GPS receiver* to transmit and receive position data.
* Compatible with an RS-232 output/NMEA format/
4800bps/9600 bps
• The transceiver has a Time-Out Timer function for
digital repeater operation. The timer limits a con-
tinuous transmission to approximately 10 minutes.
Warning beeps will sound approximately 30 seconds
before time-out and then again immediately before
time-out.
■About the DR (D-STAR® Repeater) mode
The DR (D-STAR®Repeater) mode is one mode you
can use for D-STAR®repeater operation. In this mode,
you can select the preprogrammed repeater or fre-
quency in “FROM” (the access repeater or simplex),
and UR call sign in “TO” (destination), as shown to the
right.
NOTE: If the repeater, set to “FROM” (Access Re-
peater) has no Gateway call sign, you cannot make
a gateway call.

■Communication Form
In the DR mode, the transceiver has three communica-
tion forms as shown below.
• Local area call : To call a station through your local
area (access) repeater.
• Gateway call : To call through your local area (ac-
cess) repeater, repeater gateway,
and the internet to your destination
repeater or individual station’s last
used repeater, using call sign rout-
ing.
• Simplex call : To call a station through no repeater.

• You cannot make an Internet contact if your access repeater has no gateway.
• Before operating in the DV mode, be sure to check whether the repeater is busy, or not. If the repeater is busy,
wait until it is clear, or ask for a “break” using a method acceptable to your local procedures.
