I use the following settings with my CM500 and my K3. Mic Sel - RPL Bias Antivox - 015 Xox Gn - 025 Mic Delay 0.50 Mic Gain 10 Cmp 20 You may need to increase the microphone gain setting to suit your voice.
I hope this helps.

Start with low settings (5-10)." I didn't write that text. I assumed it was saying to start with low settings to ensure the VOX would trigger reliably and raise it as needed to avoid false triggering. Maybe a bad assumption :-) Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- " Zero VOX Gain should mean that *any* sound picked up by the mic should initiate transmit." ??? I always thought "zero" meant NO - so you are saying if you turn the VOX Gain down to zero, you're going to be able to hear a flea sneeze? Or did you mis-read what Jeff actually said?
