VX-8R OPERATING MANUAL20
OPERATION
1
)
The VX-8R is smart! You can set up Low power on one band (like UHF),
while leaving VHF on High power, and the radio will remember the different
settings on each band. And when you store memories, you can store High
and Low power settings separately in each memory, so you don’t waste battery power
when using very close-in repeaters!

When you are operating on one of the Low power settings, you can press the key,
then press the PTT switch,
to cause the VX-8R to trans-
mit (temporarily) on High
power. After one transmis-
sion, the power level will re-
vert to the previously-se-
lected Low power setting.
VOX OPERATION
The VOX system provides automatic transmit/receive switching based on voice input to the
microphone. With the VOX system enabled, you do not need to press the PTT switch in order
to transmit, and it is not necessary to use a VOX headset in order to utilize VOX operation.
