VOXfunction
The VOX (Voice-Operated Transmission) function tog-
gles the transceiver between transmit and receive by
your voice. This function provides hands-free opera-
tion.
You can use the VOX function with the optional VS-3 or
a third party’s Bluetooth
®
headset.
Depending on the headset, the VOX function may be
disabled because of the differences in microphones.
If the transceiver does not connect to a Bluetooth
®
headset, you cannot use the VOX function, even if the
“VOX” item is set to ON.
Be sure to check the Bluetooth
®
connection between
the transceiver and the headset before using the VOX
function.
