VOX Sensitivity for K2

[Edward A. Dauer]

Is there a procedure for reducing the VOX sensitivity in the K2?  I have found nothing in the Manual or in the Menu menu.  I am using a Heil Proset.  The VOX triggers when I let a pen drop on the desk . . .   I believe I am using the recommended SSB settings - SSB-A at 2 and SSB-C at 3-1.  Any advice?

Tnx,

Ted, KN1CBR

Ted,

Which Heil Proset are you using?  There are basicly two types - those
with an electret mic element and those with a dynamic mic element.  The
Proset-K2 and the Proset-iC have electret mics while the others have the
dynamic.  Look at the pivot button for the microphone arm to see which
type you have.

Your setting is usually fine for the dynamic microphones, but with the
electret mics usually only need SSBA set to 1.
