GETTING OFF OF VOX - BellSouth 2250BK (22 Channels) 2-Way Radio

Vox isnt part of the HT1000 you need the C6000 PTT-VOX Adapter Bodyswitch

Hi Jon,
The problem is easy to solve, so here goes:
vox indicates that your unit is set to work via the microphone(if you have one), and is activated when you start to speak, (hence vox=voice activated microphone), if you don't have the microphone that came with the unit, you will need to buy/borrow one and connect it to the unit, before you can turn off vox, so that the unit can work with or without the microphone(vox will no longer show), once you have done this.
I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Peter

Hi Jon,

If this is the earpiece that came with the radio & it states that vox is available for the radio, then Yes would be the answer to your query.

But if you are trying to use a yaesu VC-27 vox earpiece with another Make of radio, say - Icom, then no would be the answer, as each manufacturer, programs each radio/earpiece with vox to work only with their radios.

I hope that clears up your query.

Cheers,
Peter

Here is a link to the user guide: http://www.giantintl.com/ContentManage/manuals/Moto/MR350-351%20User%20Guide%2012-16-08%20KEM-PK14190-90.pdf You will find the instructions for VOX and iVOX on the bottom of page one, and at the beginning of page 2.

Be certain when plugging in your audio accessory that the radio is turned off. If the radio is left on inadvertently, you would have no control over the VOX settings, it would immediately be in a confused VOX mode.

Also, with most Motorola radios, if VOX begins to occur, turn off the radio, and then re-insert the audio device plug. And in some instances, pressing the PTT on the radio when you are having a VOX occurrence will put the radio back to push-to-talk status.

Best regards.

You can find the answer in my blog.https://www.allicdata.com/blog.html

Can you diable The vox alltogether? I think vox is theautomatic PTT (Push to Talk) isn't it?

To select the VOX level:
1) Enter the Menu. Advance through the Menu until
the vox icon appears on the display. The current
level (OFF, 1-3) will be indicated. Level oF (OFF)
disables VOX, while levels - set the
sensitivity of the VOX circuit.
2) Press either the up arrow or down arrow key to the desired VOX
sensitivity level. Use level 1 for increased
sensitivity to voice in normally quiet
environments, and use a higher level to reduce
undesired activation in very noisy environments.
3) Exit the Menu.

you miss to save your last program,after you turn to vox mode you must to save ,or the mode will back to before you change

First, enter the menu and go to VOX. Then try to use the down arrow. As soon as on the screen apears OF press SEL 3 more times then your VOX should be off. Sorry for inconvenience but I don't know English verry good.

Hello ppaseka,

The Kenwood TK3202 onky supports VOX use with three specific models of Kenwood headsets: the KHS-1, KHS-21, and KHS-22. You will want to ensure that you are using one of these three headsets and that the Push-to-Talk is set to the VOX position.

Additionally the VOX function must be enabled in the radio. This can only be done by the dealer programming the radios. If the Voice Operated Transmit function was enabled by dealer who sold the radios to you then you may still need to set the VOX sensitivity level to ensure that function is sentitive enough to register the user's voice. The steps to setting the VOX sensitivity level are located on pages 20-21 of the radio's users manual which is available for download here.

Best Regards
Ken
