General Description
The VX-120/170 is a small size FM hand-held providing up to five watts of RF power and
wealth of convenient features for 2m amateur band.
New and exciting features of the VX-120/170 are the Emergency Automatic ID (EAI) function,
that will automatically cause your VX-120/170 to transmit your callsign and engage your rig’s
microphone, even if you are disabled and unable to press the PTT switch; Enhanced Paging
and Code Squelch (EPCS), that allows you to page a particular station and only receive calls
from that station, if desired; and a security Password feature, that will allow you to turn on and
operate your transceiver only after you enter your Password.
Additional features include a convenient access key for Vertex Standard’s WIRES
™
(Wide-coverage Internet Repeater Enhancement System), a transmit Time-Out Timer (TOT),
Automatic Power-Off (APO), Automatic Repeater Shift (ARS), Vertex Standard’s exclusive
ARTS
™
(Auto-Range Transponder System) which “beeps” the user when you move out of
communications range with another ARTS
TM
equipped station, plus provision for reduction of
the TX deviation in areas of high channel congestion. And an RF squelch circuit allows the
owner to set the squelch to open at a programmable setting of the S-Meter, thus reducing
guesswork in setting the squelch threshold.
We appreciate your purchase of the VX-120/170, and encourage you to read this manual
thoroughly, so as to learn about the many exciting features of your exciting new Vertex
Standard hand-held transceiver!
