I understand that after the TX mod auto offset is lost unless ARS is
OFF. Does this mean ARS will work normally now or your shift will
stay the same whatever area of the band you go to?

Well, think of it this way. When you do the TX-anywhere mod, you lose
country information. Therefore if ARS is on, it gives a simplex offset no
matter where you are. If you turn ARS OFF, then whatever repeater shift you
last selected is what you have. Pretty much like NO ARS at all.

Another way, a mod'd radio has no ARS and don't try to turn it on.

ARS does NOT work after the mod.

You can still do MANUAL repeater offsets the normal way. Go to menu
row 4 (RPT REV TON), press A once for minus offset, twice for
positive. You should turn off the ARS setting (SETUP menu items 1 &
2). If you leave ARS on after the mod, use the RPT button to set the
offset, and then QSY, you lose the offset you just plugged in!

Turning ARS OFF after the mod allows the radio to retain the offset
if you QSY.

(this is much more confusing to read than it is in practice. sorry!)

Do what I did, I bought a US version, ALL repeater offsets,
frequencies etc are different over here. I just programmed all our
repeater freqs in memories. mod problem solved.
