Anti-Vox

Anti-Vox is needed in SSDR. The lack of it makes using Vox with speakers a real problem.
It would be a very welcome addition to this wonderful radio!

    I am not a VOX user but I believe you can adjust the DEXP to solve the problem

    The fox sensitivity is adjustable . Also, speaker placement can help with unwanted VOX tripping.

    Anti-VOX will be a difficult implementation because there are multiple sound sources and stereo speakers to account for. Sampling all those different levels and then blanking them from the mike will be a tough programming project. Ken - NM9P

    I should not type after too much coffee.  I mean, the VOX is adjustable as far as sensitivity, which pretty much accomplishes the same thing as an anti-VOX, right?

    My speakers are within a two feet of the mic and I don't have a problem.  What I do have a problem with is when the dogs go on red alert because the UPS guy is dropping off a package.  A friend in Hawaii calls it the bark heard around the world.

    It is a sensitivity thing, when adjusted ok it should work well. It always works very well on my Flex 3000, once I get it setup right.

    This is the echo-cancellation problem. The solution is usually some flavor of adaptive filter in echo-cancelling mode. It's been done to death. Implementations are available.


    I agree with the OP. Sensitivity-adjustment is the brute force solution and may only be adequate for use with headsets.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
