VX-7R OPERATING MANUAL 15
OPERATION
SELECTING THE FREQUENCY BAND
The VX-7R covers an incredibly wide
frequency range, over which a number
of different operating modes are used.
Therefore, the VX-7Rs frequency cov-
erage has been divided into different
operating bands, each of which has its
own pre-set channel steps and operat-
ing modes. You can change the chan-
nel steps and operating modes later, if
you like (see page 25).

To Change Operating Bands
1. Press the key repetitively. You will see the LCD indication move toward a higher
frequency band each time you press the key.
2. If you wish to move the operating band selection downward (toward lower frequen-
cies), press the key first, then press the key.
3. The VX-7R uses a dual VFO system (described previously). To switch TX/RX opera-
tion from the “Main” VFO to the “Sub” VFO instantly, press the key momentarily.
Pressing the key will return the VX-7R to the “Main” VFO. The frequency band
bearing the “Large” characters is the band on which transmission is possible; the band
designated by “Small” characters may only be used for reception.
4. Once you have selected the desired band, you may initiate manual tuning (or scanning)
per the discussions on the next page.
Dual Receive Notice
The VX-7R may receive very strong signals on the Image frequency, and/or the
receiver sensitivity may be somewhat reduced by the combination of the “Main”
and “Sub” band frequencies while Dual Receive operation is engaged.
If you experience interference that you suspect may be coming in via an “Image”
path, you may calculate the possible frequencies using the formulas below. This infor-
mation may be used in the design of effective countermeasures such as traps, etc.
3.579545 MHz x n 11.7 MHz x n (n is an integer: 1, 2, 3, …)
“Main” band freq. = (“Sub” band freq. ± 46.35 MHz) x
n
“Sub” band freq. = (“Main” band freq. ± 47.25 MHz) x n (@ “Main band = NFM)
“Sub” band freq. = (“Main” band freq. ± 45.8 MHz) x
n (@ “Main band = WFM)
