A cough switch sounds like a great idea, but a bit low tech. K3 users
are mostly familiar with the Tx Gate function that blocks audio below a
threshold level to reduce background noise. Would it not be possible to
recognise audio input above a certain pre-settable level and have that
also block transmission. Normally a cough or sneeze is much louder than
our normal speech (ignore this if you purchase larynx oil and practice
for the appearance of P5 on a regular basis!).

This isn’t a bad idea. It’s the primary reason I normally don’t use VOX —
especially with a headset mic, when you can’t turn away from the microphone for
a cough, sneeze, or worse. With a headset, I most always use a handheld PTT
switch or foot switch.
In the days I had a substantial AM station I had a cough switch in the mic line.

Programmable PTT so that when using VOX on SSB, the PTT functions as a mute
