Retevis H-777 How to set VOX Sensitivity?

[G3MiNi]

Hi all,

Today I received my Retevis H-777 2-way radios. It shows that there are five levels of VOX sensitivity, but does not show how to adjust it. Does anyone out there have any experience with this, or similar, radio(s) that can help?

Thanks!

If the radio has FPP, it usually can be set in the menu. Otherwise, the software controls this feature when you create a code plug. Depending on the quality of the radio, you may find VOX useless because it is triggered by sound, not just your voice. Many (all?) radios also have a delay from when the first word is heard and the radio actually starts to transmit. This can cause more than one word to be left out of your reply.

Thanks jaspence - While the unit does not have an LCD screen / on screen menu, I found out that a programming cable + software are required to access the vox and several other functions, including reassigning channels...etc. I know the problems with VOX, but just having purchased these - I like to tinker - so I wanted to try out every setting to see what works and what is garbage. I fear I won't be using vox, but I ordered the programming cable anyway to play with the programming.
