VOX not being applied to channels

Post by WP3BM » Thu Feb 13, 2020 7:37 pm

Greetings,

Using build 12:11:16 10FEB20.

I programmed two analog channels for APRS and PACKET and selected to activate VOX, as I am using the radio with APRSdroid and Serial USB Terminal Android Apps. I noticed that after sending to the radio, the VOX is not active and since there is no VOX option in the Channel Detail item in the menu, I can not activate it manually. Reading the radio, the VOX still appears to be active, but it is not working.

VOX is far easier to get working than messaging ;-) especially on FM.

Hi and good morning/afternoon/evening. Just a quick confirmation to validate if VOX has been implemented yet. Eager to try some EMCOMM tests using the GD77 and advanced APRS commands through APRSDroid.

Reason I ask is because 3gen though VOX is active my PTT is not activating. I'm using the BTECH-APRS-K1 cable and a Samsung Galaxy Note 9.

Thanks and 73 de HB9HJU,

Depends which FW version you're running, but VOX has been implemented mid-2020.
Maybe you need to tweak the VOX threshold value, in the Sound options, and don't forget to enable the VOX in the given channel.
