Front Panel Controls, Switches, & Jacks - Yaesu FT-920 Operating Manual

(1) P Switch
OWER
This latching-type switch turns the FT-920 on and
off. Push it once to turn the transceiver on, and press
it again to turn the power off.
(2) MOX Switch
This also is a latching-type switch, used to switch the
FT-920 manually into the transmit mode (instead of
using the microphone Push-To-Talk (PTT) switch, for
example). Press [MOX] once to activate the transmit
mode, and press it again to release the FT-920 back
into the receive mode.
Be sure to have an antenna or dummy
load connected to the transceiver when
this switch is pushed. Failure to do so may
cause damage to the transmitter's final amplifier
stage.
(3) VOX Switch
This switch enables automatic voice-actuated trans-
mitter switching in the SSB, AM, and FM modes, as
well as "semi-break-in" CW. Press the [VOX] switch
once to activate VOX, and again to disable VOX (and
return to PTT operation).
