Vox Delay Time; Transmit Inhibit While Receiving - Kenwood TK-3230DX Instruction Manual

• While adjusting the VOX Gain level, speak into the microphone.
When an appropriate level is reached, the LED lights orange.
• Setting the VOX gain level to OFF deactivates VOX. In order to
transmit with VOX turned off, you must use the PTT switch.

VOX Delay Time

If the transceiver returns to receive mode too quickly after
you stop speaking, the end of your message may not be
transmitted. To avoid this, select an appropriate delay time that
allows your entire message to be transmitted. However, do not
make the delay overly long.

to simulate transmitting. The LED lights orange while speaking,
but no signal is transmitted at this time.

Transmit Inhibit While Receiving

While using VOX, you can set the transceiver to detect when
the channel is in use (in place of using the Monitor function).
With this function turned on, VOX will not allow you to transmit
while the channel is being used. You can transmit only when
the channel is free. Setting up the proceed tone function {page
31} will notify you when the channel is free.
