Voice Activated Audionic Earphone
FEATURES
Your RadioShack Voice-Activated Audionic Ear-
phone makes it easier and safer to use your hand-
held transceiver. The ultra-light weight speaker/
microphone combined with voice-activation makes
hands-free communications a breeze. You can con-
tinue your activities without interrupting your com-
munication. Just connect the earphone’s plugs to
the jacks on your transceiver.
You can use this earphone with many of the
RadioShack handheld amateur radio, business
band, Family Radio Service, citizen's band, and
GMRS tranceivers that have external microphone
and speaker jacks.
The earphone is also compatible with Icom, Stan-
dard, Yaesu, and Alinco transceivers.
The earphone’s features include:
Voice Activation Control (VOX) — you can set the
earphone to automatically activate the transceiver
so you transmit only when you speak.
VOX High/Low Positions — lets you adjust the mi-
crophone's sensitivity to your voice level.
Push-To-Talk (PTT) Button — lets you manually
switch between transmitting and receiving.
Combination Mic/Earpiece — translates your voice
into electrical signal for the transceiver during trans-
mission, and acts as a normal earphone during re-
ception.
Low-Power Circuitry — operates for more than
180 hours on one AAA alkaline battery (not sup-
plied).
One Small and Two Large Replacement Earpiec-
es — provide a comfortable fit for any size ear open-
ing.
PREPARATION
Installing the Battery
You need one AAA battery (not supplied) to operate
the earphone. For the longest battery life, we recom-
mend a RadioShack alkaline battery. Follow these
steps to install the battery.
1. Press down on the battery compartment cover
and slide away from the clip.
2. Install the battery in the compartment as indi-
cated by the polarity symbols (+ and –) marked
inside.
3. Replace the cover.
Note: If you are using VOX and the transceiver does
not switch to transmit when you begin speaking, re-
place the battery.
Using the Clip
You can use the clip to attach the earphone's control
box to a pocket or belt.
