Transmitting a Message - The P-T-T / VOX selection switch allows you
a choice of transmission modes: Push-To-Talk (P-T-T) or hands-free VOX
(voice activated).
To initiate a new message or reply to a
received message, press and hold the
P-T-T button, speak at a normal rate,
in a normal tone - keeping the microphone
not more than 18 inches from your mouth.
When you have finished your message,
release the P-T-T button. The radio's TX
indicator icon will appear while you are
speaking to confirm that you are transmitting.
In the VOX (voice activated) mode, your voice will activate the radio transmis-
sion. The VOX sensitivity level is also influenced by the noise
level of your surroundings.
During VOX operation, you should remain within 18 to 36 inches from the
microphone for optimum performance. For VOX transmitting mode, set
the VOX sensitivity level by pushing the slide switch to LOW for less sensitivity
to sound, to HIGH for greater sensitivity. On the LOW setting, speak loudly to
activate the transmitter. On the HIGH setting, speak more softly to activate a
transmisison.
Perform a "test" transmission and observe the TX icon on the LCD display.
When you speak, the TX icon should display. If the icon does not display
you may need to adjust the slide switch to the HIGH position or move closer
to the microphone. Perform a second "test" transmission, again observing
the TX icon. The icon should display when you speak, and will go out when
you stop talking. Note that the RX icon means the radio is receiving. You
cannot transmit until the RX (receive) icon goes out.
