lect the desired VOX level (HI or LO) by means of the p/q buttons and
then press the PTT button to confirm.
VOX can be adjusted in 2 positions:
• HI: high sensitivity (normal voice with no background noise)
• LO: low sensitivity (useful in very noisy areas or if you talk loudly)
To disable the VOX mode

lect 'OF' by means of the p/q buttons and then push PTT to confirm.
Attention
To use the VOX with the headset provided with the M99-S model, move
the small switch of the headset to the VOX position. Move it back to PTT
position if you don't use the VOX function.
Roger Beep: end transmission tone
When PTT is released the radio will beep to confirm to other users that
your transmission has finished. This feature is enabled by default and it is
displayed with the icon.
