matic extension of the communication range for low-powered hand-held or mobile trans-
ceivers. The VX-127 includes a number of features which make repeater operation simple
and enjoyable.

The VX-127 has been configured, at the factory, with the repeater shift set to 1.6 MHz, 7.6

Depending on the part of the band in which you
are operating, the repeater shift may be either
downward (–) or upward (+), and one of these
icons will appear at the top of the LCD when
repeater shifts have been enabled.
