Specifications are subject to change without notice, and are guaranteed within the 144/430 MHz
amateur bands only.
Cellular Blocked per FCC rule Part 15.121, may not receive 900 MHz Amateur band.
The VX-8GR/GE allows connecting a computer COM port to the DATA Jack, and en-
ables the following functions. Refer to refer to “APRS/GPS Set Mode Item 15: COM
PORT SETTING” for the details.
 Displays the location data (Lat/Lon) of the after-market GPS receiver on the dis-
play.
 Outputs the location data (Lat/Lon) of the built-in GPS receiver unit.
 Outputs the Waypoint data of the received APRS beacon.
Refer to the illustration below, connect the optional CT-143 PC Connection Cable be-
tween the COM port of your Computer and the DATA Jack on the VX-8GR/GE.
