Instead of using the microphone’s
PTT
switch or the front panel [
MOX
] switch to activate the transmitter, the VOX (Voice
Operated TX/RX Control) system provides hands-free, automatic activation of the transmitter, based on voice input into
the microphone.
1. Press the [
VOX
] button to activate the VOX circuitry.
The LED inside the [
VOX
] button glows red.
2. Without pressing the
PTT
switch, speak into the mi-
crophone in a normal voice level. When you start speak-
ing, the transmitter should be activated automatically.
When you finish speaking, the transceiver should re-
turn to the receive mode (after a short delay).
3. To cancel VOX and return to
PTT
operation, press the
[
VOX
] button again. The LED inside the [
VOX
] but-
ton will disappear, signifying that the VOX circuitry
has been turned off.

While speaking into the microphone, rotate the
[
CLAR/VFO-B
] knob to the point where the trans-
mitter is quickly activated by your voice, without
background noise causing the transmitter to acti-
vate.
When you satisfied with the setting, press and hold
in the [
MENU
] button for one second to save the
new setting and exit to normal operation.
The “Hang-Time” of the VOX system (the transmit/
receive delay after the cessation of speech) may also
be adjusted via the Menu mode. The default delay is
500 msec. To set a different delay time:
Press the [
VOX
] button to activate the VOX cir-
cuitry, if necessary.
Press the [

hold in the [
MENU
] button for one second to save
the new setting and exit to normal operation.
The Anti-Trip setting adjusts the level of negative re-
ceiver audio feedback to the microphone, to prevent
receiver audio from activating the transmitter (via the
microphone). This setting can also be adjusted via
Menu item “
