Operation

The crossband repeater function uses 2 frequency bands to

receive and transmit signals. When a signal is received on one

band, it is retransmitted on the other band.

1 Select a transmission/reception VHF or UHF

frequency on the FM transceiver.

2 Confirm the PTT icon is visible on the crossband

repeater frequency on the FM transceiver.

3 Select the same frequency for the terminal

transceiver.

4 Select a HF/50 MHz frequency on the TS-890S

transceiver.

5 Adjust the squelch threshold level so that both the

TS-890S and FM transceivers mute.

6 On the TS-890S, press [MENU], then access

Advanced Menu [11] (PKS Polarity Reverse) and

[12] (TX Inhibit While Busy).

Select “On”.

•

When the TS-890S transceiver’s squelch opens, the FM

transceiver simultaneously retransmits the incoming audio

signal on the VHF or UHF frequency.

•

When the FM transceiver’s squelch opens, the TS-890S

transceiver retransmits the incoming audio signal on the HF/

50 MHz frequency.

8 Access Menu [7-07] (ACC2: Audio Input Level) and

[7-09] (ACC2: Audio Output Level) and adjust the

input/ output audio level.

9 To quit the FM repeater operation, disconnect the

interface cable between the transceivers, then

access Advanced Menu [11] and [12] on the

TS-890S transceiver and select “Off”.

Sky Command System II

Sky Command System II allows you to remotely control the

TS-890S transceiver from a separate location.

•

If you have more than 2 TH-D7A/ TH-D72(A/E)/ TM-D710/G(A/

E)/ TM-V71A + RC-D710/ TM-D700A transceivers, you can

perform Sky Command System II operation to remotely control

your TS-890S transceiver.

•

You will use one transceiver (TH-D7A, TH-D72(A/E)/ TM-D710/

G(A/E), TM-V71A + RC-D710, or TM-D700A) as a remote

control unit, called a “Commander”. The other VHF/ UHF

transceiver (TH-D7A, TH-D72(A/E)/ TM-D710/G(A/E), TM-

V71A + RC-D710, or TM-D700A) with the TS-890S transceiver

is called the “Transporter”. This TH-D7A, TH-D72(A/E)/ TM-

D710/G(A/E), TM-V71A + RC-D710, or TM-D700A transceiver

will function as an interface between the Commander (a remote

control unit) and the band of the TS-890S transceiver.

•

This system allows you, for example, to watch for and hunt DX

while washing your car, or to operate the HF transceiver while

relaxing in your car, living room, or patio, instead of actually

operating inside your shack.

●

Operation of Sky Command System II may not been

permitted in certain countries. Check your local laws

before operating.

Although you can use a TH-D7A, TH-D72(A/E)/ TM-D710/G(A/E),

TM-V71A + RC-D710, or TM-D700A transceiver as a

“Commander” (an external remote control unit), the following

D72(A/E)/ TM-D710/G(A/E), TM-V71A + RC-D710, or TM-D700A

transceivers as a “Transporter” at a base station and the TH-

D72(A/E)/ TM-D710/G(A/E), TM-V71A + RC-D710, or TM-D700A

transceiver as a “Commander”.
