VOX function
The transceiver has a VOX function, which allows hands-free
operation.
An optional HS-94, HS-95 or HS-97 headset and the OPC-
2004 plug adapter cable are also required.
• The VOX (voice operated transmission) function starts transmis-
sion when you speak into the microphone, without needing to
push
[PTT]; then, automatically returns to reception when you stop
speaking.
