It can transmit on 50/144/430 MHz. 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.

 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. When exporting to CHIRP, you may notice there may be fewer memory channels exported than what was found in the search.

-===== Tips and Tricks ===== 
  
-Import the data into CHIRP and then massage the data there as a master file. For example, CHIRP defaults to setting the power to the L1. I'll go line by line and change the power to my preferred settings. Once that is all squared away, I will save an image of the configuration. That image can be used to create settings for any other radio you own that is supported by CHIRP. With that procedure, you are well on your way to programming all of your radio as similarly as possible.

-If you would also like to use the VX-7 Commander software, save your work as a *.img file and then as a file as a *.vx7 file. Open the *.vx7 file with VX-7 Commander.
