That is why I've begged several times for a firmware change to make VOX gain
saved per mode.
I do use VOX on RTTY and SSB and with a lot of fussing with soundcard levels
have it more-or-less set so all modes use about the same VOX gain.
Unfortunately, IMHO anyway, I think VOX gain should be independent of mic gain
but it isn't.

I use VOX for my SSB operating. Thus if I were to use it for digital modes I
would need to change the settings. And then set it back for SSB. With CAT
that is set in the software as I outlined. Set it and forget it.

I have a K3s and have never used CAT for PTT fuctions. I found it to hard to
set up and think about. I do use VOX for keying the transmitter. I find that
works very well and is mindlessly simple to set up. The only thing you need to
know is to remember to turn the VOX function on and make sure you have enough
audio going in to satisfy the 4 steady bars with a 5th flickering on the ALC
indicator. This approach allow me to switch to differing digital software with
little need to do further set ups. I suggest that those who are having problems
setting up CAT for their radios give this a try and see how well it works. And
BTW: I do use FT8 fairly regularly as well as RTTY and PSK31.
