VOX Delay Time
If the transceiver returns to Reception Mode too quickly
after you stop speaking, the end of your transmission
may not be sent. To avoid this, select an appropriate
delay time that allows your entire transmission to be
sent, before Transmission Mode ends. However, do not
make the delay overly long.
1 Press [MENU].
2 Turn the Tuning control to select Menu No. 22 (VD).
3 Press [MENU].
4 Turn the Tuning control to select the desired delay
time from 250, 500 (default), 750, 1000, 1500, 2000
and 3000 ms.
5 Press [MENU] to store the setting or [PTT] to cancel.
6 While speaking into the microphone using your
normal tone of voice, adjust the VOX delay time,
performing steps 1 to 5 until the transceiver reliably
switches between transmission and reception each
time you speak.
Note:
◆ If you press [PTT] while the VOX function is ON, the VOX Delay
Time is not reflected to the transmission.
◆ If you press [CALL] (if 1750 Hz is programmed) {page 35} to
transmit a 1750 Hz tone, the VOX Delay Time is not reflected.
◆ If the DCS function {page 73} is ON, the transceiver remains in
Transmission Mode for the duration set by the VOX Delay Time. It
then sends a Turn-Off Code to close the receiving party’s squelch.
