I have a question for anyone on the list who has an FT-470.
        How do you check repeater shift and PL tones?  I replaced the battery on my
old FT-470 HT and haven't been able to access any repeaters with it.  I am
thinking the problem is just a simple programming issue such as PL tones or
repeater shift.  However, I don't have any useable vision to check the
display screen and see where the tones or repeater shift are set.  I live in
a 3-story apartment and am living on the 2nd floor.  While I am inside, I
can receive signals ok, but can't transmit to repeaters.  Can anyone
recommend other things I could check for?  Thanks in advance.

Eric
