VOX DELAY TIME
If the transceiver returns to receive mode too quickly
after you stop speaking, your final word may not be
transmitted. To avoid this, select an appropriate
delay time that allows all of your words to be
transmitted. However, do not make the delay overly
long. There are 2 ways of adjusting the VOX Delay
Time.
When the VOX function is already ON:
Press [ ]/ [ ] to select the desired delay time from
250, 500 (default), 750, 1000, 1500, 2000 and
3000 ms.
The VOX Delay Time, “D: 500ms” changes
accordingly.

1 Press [MNU].
2 Turn the Tuning control or press [ ]/ [ ] to select
Menu No. 22 (VOX DELAY).
3 Press [ ] or [MNU].

5 Press [ ] or [MNU] to store the setting.
Otherwise, press [ ] or [PTT] to cancel.
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 13} to
transmit 1750 Hz tone, the VOX Delay Time is not reflected.
If the DCS function {page 29} is ON, the transceiver remains in
the transmission mode for the VOX Delay Time, then it sends
“Turn-Off Code” to close the receiving parties squelch.
VOX ON BUSY
You can configure the transceiver to force VOX
transmission even if the transceiver is receiving a
signal on A or B-band.
