provides a method to link computers together via radio.

Page

A function that allows one station to signal another by

sending a transmission encoded with a Page code that
only opens the squelch of a receiver with the same code
selected. The calling station’s code appears on the

target station's display after a successful Page.

Page code memory

A memory channel dedicated to storing only Page codes.

See "Page".

delay transmission of Page codes after [PTT] is pressed.
The delay can improve the reliability of Page when
communicating with a receiver with slow response time.

A station, usually installed in a central location at a high

elevation, designed to receive and re-transmit signals.
The purpose of a repeater is to increase the receive and
transmit range of stations able to access the repeater.

Reset (initialization)

Depending on the type of reset done, some or all

memory may be erased and set to default values. A
reset can be done as a last resort when the transceiver
appears to be malfunctioning.
