The receiver is capable of 0.5 - 999 MHz (cellular blocked). The 900 MHz cellular blocking makes it impossible to hear 900 MHz repeater outputs.
 The VX-7R has a capacity for up to 900 memory channels.

 When exporting to CHIRP, you may notice there may be fewer memory channels exported than what was found in the search. This is because CHIRP does not currently support the programming of any DMR radios. Therefore, DMR repeaters are filtered from the export. Other exports like TravelPlus do not perform this filtering and you may need to manually weed your memory channels to avoid attempting to send analog FM transmissions to a digital repeater.
-===== KD6KPC's Tips =====
-I have found it extraordinarily simple to export from RepeaterBook in the CHIRP format, upload it to the radio, then download it in the VX-7 Commander software. The VX-7 Commander performs additional checks that CHIRP does not.
