Hands-Free Use (VOX)
LOOK, NO HANDS!!
Your radio has built-in Voice Operated Transmission (VOX),
which allows you to transmit “hands-free” just by talking or using
VOX accessories. After VOX has been set and turned on, you
can use it anytime you want your hands free for other things.
To set VOX, select the
SETTINGS mode and the SET VOX menu,
select
VOX ON. When VOX is set to ON, your display shows g.
To turn on VOX, quickly press and release
{ and g will begin to flash. Your radio
will now transmit every time you talk. Press
{ to turn off VOX and return to the
regular way of transmitting. The gwill stop flashing. To reset VOX use, select
VOX OFF.
The VOX sensitivity level allows you to compensate for background noise. This
minimizes the chance of unintended noises triggering a transmission.
To set the VOX sensitivity level, select the
SETTINGS mode and the SET SENS
menu, then select high (
HI) for quiet environments, medium (MED), or low (LO) for
noisy environments.
VOX MED is recommended for most situations, although you
may need to experiment until you get the right setting.
When you connect a VOX accessory, the radio will automatically set to
VOX ON and
g will begin to flash, indicating that the radio is ready to transmit each time you talk.
When you transmit using a VOX headset, you’ll hear yourself talking through the
accessory speaker. This feature lets you know VOX is working.
