USING HANDSFREE (VOX)
Your radio’s VOX feature lets you transmit without pressing
M.
You can use VOX with or with-
out a connected VOX accessory.
The VOX sensitivity level allows you to compensate for background noise by adjusting the mi-
crophone’s sensitivity. By adjusting the VOX sensitivity level up or down, you can minimize the
chance of unintended noises triggering a transmission, or increase the microphone’s ability to
pick up quiet voices.
1. To set the VOX sensitivity level, repeatedly press
\
until
g

installed) or

or
]
until the desired VOX sensi-
tivity level (from
for noisy environments through
for quiet envi-
ronments when a VOX accessory is installed or through
for quiet
environments when a VOX accessory is not installed) appears.
2. When you have finished transmitting using VOX, press
M
to turn off VOX.
