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 built-in microphone. For best operation 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.
Set the VOX and the VOX Gain level, perform the following steps:
