VOX Operation
The VOX system provides automatic transmit/receive
switching based on voice input to the microphone when
using the after- market Headset. With the VOX system
enabled, you do not need to press the
PTT
switch in or-
der to transmit.
Note: The VOX system does not function when using just
the internal microphone; an external headset must be used.
