headset.
VOX Level—controls the sensitivity level of any
Voice Operated Transmission (VOX) accessory.
VOX accessories allow you to use the unit hands-
free. A lower VOX setting is recommended for
quiet environments whereas a higher VOX setting
should be used in noisy environments. Setting
the VOX level to 5 is recommended, but it can be
necessary to adjust the level to achieve the voice
trigger level. You can hear yourself talking in the
headset when transmitting successfully using VOX.
Microphone Sensitivity
—set the sensitivity of
the internal microphone and the sensitivity of a
headset microphone. When selected, a sensitivity
adjustment slider appears. Adjusting the sensitivity
requires the assistance of another radio user to
advise of the voice quality received while adjusting
the slider.
