Mic for voice response is integrated into the radio. It is listening all the time. Wouldn't work otherwise.

"Ellie, turn on the VOX"

"I'm sorry Dave. You aren't paying attention. The VOX is already on..."

I have a distorted vision of the following:

Your K4 is on SSB, tuned to the net you are checked into.  Your VOX is
on - you forgot.

Your K4 (VOX already activated)  New features can be added.

At 13 other K4 stations, the speaker repeats "Ellie, turn on the VOX",
and these 13 rigs respond by doing so.

13 operators, not wanting the VOX on, say "Ellie, turn off the VOX",
which, since the VOX is now on, is transmitted (nearly simultaneously)
on the net frequency.

(etc. - complete or alter events to suit your own distorted imagination!)

It is enough to make a cow (Elsie) laugh.

Voice interface is OK with household electronics but I doubt we'll see it
in our transceivers in the near future.
Instead of “Hey Siri!” we could say “Hey Ellie!” to our Elecraft gear.
