Two Way Radio Voice Activation
Completely Handsfree Use Of Two Way Radios!
Voice Activation (VOX)
VOX (voice-operated exchange), more commonly known as "voice activation", allows the two-way radio's microphone and PTT button to be activated automatically by simply speaking into the radio.
How To Use VOX
Most two-way radios' voice activation feature only works via an external VOX capable earpiece or headset. Once connected, however, you simply start speaking and the two-way radio will automatically initiate the transmission and electronically engage the PTT button. When there is no longer any audio coming via your earpiece or headset, the two-way radio automatically disengages the PTT.
Activating VOX
Most business grade licence exempt two way radios allow activating the voice activation feature via a button combination on the radio; or by simply plugging in a vox-capable eartpiece or headset. However, some more complex two-way radios, such as our licensed two-way radios will require some reprogramming.
VOX Drawbacks
Since VOX works by listening out for audio via the attached accessory, background noise that's near to the sound of a human voice will also activate it. That means practically anything can activate the voice activation.
