I absolutely love my KX2 with the auto tuner. There is one feature that is annoying however. When it is turned off the vox setting “CW md that enables break-in keying defaults to “off”. So when I turn it back on I have to go into the menu to select CW md again. Is there a way to program the unit to power up with that setting “on”?
Tnx,
Al, W8RBF

I've used one of the PF functions for that.  Easy peasy.  I don't want VOX
on when I turn my KX2 on just in case I want to go to the SSB portion of
the band.  Look in the manual to help you with the steps to take.  I've
also used a PF function for ATU and BYPASS - in that case when I use the
AlexLoop, when I don't want to use the auto-tune, a button push takes me
away from that.  Another function is AF - with my KX3 it's got a separate
knob - rather than go into the MENU for that, I've got a PF to take me
directly to that as well.

I'm going to sell my KX3 - not that I don't like it, but man I'm using this
KX2 all the time.  I thought I'd miss some of the KX3 features, but that's
just not the case for me.  And I never do 6 nor 160, I rarely even do 80 so
the KX2 suffices

Al,

I am a bit confused by your wording.
You select CW or other modes with the MODE button - not the menu.
While in CW mode, go into the menu and turn VOX ON.
That is all there is to it.  When you cycle power the VOX should stay on
if you select CW mode with the MODE button.

Anyway many thanks for link.

Best regards,
