VOX gain
The VOX gain level can be adjusted between 1
(minimum) and 10 (maximum), or turned OFF. Higher
values make the VOX function more sensitive to your
voice.
z While speaking into the headset microphone, adjust
the VOX gain until "On" continuously is displayed
on the display.
If "On" is intermittent, be sure the VOX delay is set
long enough to allow normal pauses in speech, but
keeptheVOXONuntilyoufinishspeaking.
CONVENIENT!
While transmitting using the VOX function, you can
adjust the VOX gain simply by rotating [VOL].
VOX delay
Set the VOX delay to between 0.5 and 3.0 seconds (in
0.5 seconds steps). The VOX delay is the amount of
time the transmitter stays ON after you stop speaking.
VOX time-out timer
Set the VOX time-out timer to between 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
10 and 15 minutes to prevent accidental prolonged
transmission for the VOX function. To turn OFF the
function, select "Vto.OF."
The VOX time-out timer must be set shorter than the
time-out timer, otherwise the VOX time-out timer will
not function.

Questions and answers
I bought this thinking it was a simple ship to shore to call bridges on the ICVW. How do I call on for example, Channel 9?
To call on Channel 9 using the Icom IC-V86, follow these steps:
1. Turn on the transceiver.
2. Push [VFO/MR/CALL] several times to select the memory mode.
3. Use [Y] or [Z] to navigate to Channel 9.
4. Press and hold the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button to transmit.
5. Release the PTT button to listen.
This will allow you to call on Channel 9.
