Hi!

 

When working on the 70 cm (440 MHZ) band, what is the easiest way to enter
an offset?  Also, for the 70 cm / 440 MHZ band, is it correct that the
standard offset is 5000 kHz (5 MHZ)?  for example, if there is a repeater
whose frequency is "449.0800- (minus)", should the offset be set to "-5000"?

 

Fortunately, I know that for the 2M band the TS-2000 does the offset
automatically.  Coincidently, is there a setting in the rig to have it
automatically do offsets for the 70 cm / 440 MHZ band?

 

Thanks & 73,

Richard KK6MRH
