    I’ve tried to look up the possible discrepancies. I hope that these new instructions are correct. Again, if not, my apologies.

    1. My Call Sign

      [MENU] → SET → My Station → My Call Sign

      Enter up to six callsigns; Terminal mode (ID‑52A PLUS) has separate TM call sign setting.

    2. Enable Digital Repeater Auto‑Set (Optional)

      [MENU] → SET → DV Set → Digital Repeater Set → ON

    3. Enter Repeater/Gateway Callsigns (if manual)

      In DV Gateway:

      [MENU] → DV Gateway → DV Gateway Connection → Terminal/Access Point → set RPT1 and RPT2 with repeater B and G suffixes.

    4. Store Repeater in Memory

      Use MEMORY menu to assign frequency/callsign to a memory channel. Use imported lists if preferred.

    5. Connect to Repeater

      • Set DV mode.

      • Select memory channel.

      • Hold PTT ~1 sec. Look for “UR?” or receipt of reply.

    6. Run Local CQ or Gateway CQ

      • Set TO field: “Local CQ” for local repeater, or repeater callsign for gateway operation via DR/TO SELECT screen.

    7. Reflector Linking

      • In DR/TO, set TO = reflector callsign (e.g. REFxxxY), then hold PTT. Must first unlink current reflector.

    Summary of Discrepancies

    • Renamed “DV Gateway Set” → “DV Gateway”.

    • Repeater callsigns are not under “DV Gateway Set” but under DV Gateway Connection.

    • Digital Repeater Set is off by default; optional but useful.

    • Terminal vs Normal mode has separate call sign memory.

    • Reflector linking step clarified: TO field usage and unlink requirement.

Bias is a tendency to favor or lean towards one perspective, person, or group, often at the expense of another. Bias can be conscious or unconscious (implicit) and can influence judgment, decision-making, and behavior. Unlike prejudice, which is explicitly about preconceived notions, biases can be more subtle and can even occur without the individual being fully aware of them. Bias is broader and can be positive or negative, affecting various aspects of life like decision-making in work, preferences in social settings, etc. Bias is basically a difference of opinion and that must be respected. Prejudice, however, refers to negative, preconceived opinions or attitudes held by an individual or group towards another group or individual, often without factual basis or experience. Prejudices are usually harmful, leading to unfair treatment or discrimination. They are often based on stereotypes and can be about race, gender, religion, nationality, or any other distinguishing characteristic. Prejudice is more about feelings and attitudes. Ham Community does not tolerate prejudice. We are all different, that's fine. Remember, duty and honor are built on respect. Use this reporting category sparingly and only if you are quite certain that the member is being openly and hurtfully prejudiced.
