of the D710A is that the offset must be stated on UHF, while on
VHF a default is applied. However in my area the repeater on
147.00 uses a offset of -060. If this is not stated in the
object the D710A will use an offset of +060. I have elected to
state the offset information on both UHF and VHF for uniformity.</div>

I, a user of a non-auto-offseting VHF radio THANK YOU for that
decision! If I receive your frequency objects in my APRS client, I
will know, beyond shadow of a doubt, exactly how to manually tune my
radio to access your repeater - again reaching the widest possible
audience with the included information. <br>
<br>
By extrapolation, I'm also a proponent of putting Toff instead of
assuming that the absence of this specification means that there is
no tone. If there isn't a tone, tell the user!<br>
