The signal repeater is a weapon mod in Fallout 4.
Effects[]
When equipped on a gamma gun, it appears with the "Automatic" prefix and a unique muzzle attachment on the dish. The weapon gains a significant increase to rate-of-fire from 66 to 90 with a new fully automatic firing mode at the cost of a slight decrease to weapon accuracy. Unlike similar automatic-mode mods, the signal repeater does not carry with it a decrease to damage per shot.
Similarly, both regular actions and Critical Hits in V.A.T.S. result in firing three-shot bursts instead of one shot per action.

Locations[]
The signal repeater modification does not spawn as loot, nor is it sold by any merchants in the game. It can only be obtained via crafting at a weapons workbench.
Notes[]
The signal repeater's lack of damage reduction as an automatic-mode modification, combined with the fact that radiation damage is relative to a target's health, leads to a scenario where equipping it along with the deep dish mod on a gamma gun with the "Irradiated" or Two Shot legendary effect creates a weapon that can kill even high-level enemies like mythic deathclaws in one or two VATS sequences.
