Yaesu FT-470 crossband repeater function ======================================== If you turn on the radio with the RPT key depressed, the radio becomes a crossband repeater. Dial up two frequencies you want to crosslink (be sure to pay attention to transmit offsets, if any), turn the radio off, depress the RPT key, and turn it back on. The tone encode/decode flags and the -+ flags will be flashing and when either band's squelch opens, the other band is moved into the primary frequency display and the transmitter keys. Note that the power output is decreased to LOW power. Further note: the crossband audio isn't great, probably because it's whatever comes out the speaker and gets fed back into the mike. I suppose if you got serious, you could create a short interface cable to plug into the top of the radio.
