It's in the Service menu. You need the radio attached

The short answer, Grady, is no. The Maratrac uses the same oscillator
for transmit and receive. To make a one-box repeater like with a Micor
or MastrII, you have to be able to separate the TX and RX so that both
work at the same time. Just can't be done with a Maratrac.
