VOICE OPERATED TRANSMISSION (VOX) Using the VOX feature, you can operate the transceiver hands-free. In order to use this feature, however, you must use an optional headset; VOX will not function with the builtin microphone. For best operating conditions, we recommend you use an optional headset with both an ear piece and a microphone on a boom that rests in front of your mouth. With VOX activated, your voice level will determine when the transceiver transmits. Because of this, you must take care that the ambient noise around you is not so loud that it causes the transceiver to transmit. Due to the automatic switching between transmission and reception, we recommend you set the VOX Gain level such that it will not activate transmission when in an area with excessive ambient noise. VOX Gain To activate VOX and set the VOX Gain level: With the transceiver power OFF, connect the headset to the transceiver {page 12}. 1 The VOX function does not activate when a headset is not connected to the speaker/ microphone jack of the transceiver. 2 14 Press and hold the Side 1 key while turning the transceiver power ON. Continue to hold the Side 1 key until the LED lights orange and the transceiver 1 announces "VOX", then release the key. Upon releasing the key, the transceiver will announce the current VOX Gain level.
