VOX on TS-140
There's a vox jack on the back of the TS-140.
Is there a vox circuit in that tcvr? If so, what do I have to do to get it working? If not so, what can I do to get one rigged up? I want to do hands free ssb. Thanks KB2AMY Evan |

For manuals, try Manualman or W7FG. They make good quality reproductions of vintage manuals. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE |

As I recall, based on owning the TS680S some years back, the 140 does
indeed have VOX. The 680 did not since it replaced the switch to use VOX mode with the preamp switch. I think that the VOX mode switch is one of the small controls at the lower left of the front panel. The standard VOX controls (not jack) for gain, anti-VOX and delay should be on the back panel. 73, John FAZAMY wrote: There's a vox jack on the back of the TS-140.

Thanks for the info. Your response implies that everything I need is already
on the TS-140. There is also some kind of VOX switch (I guess) on the front panel along with the jack in the back. Therefore, I guess, all I've to do is plug in the mic to the jack in the back and I'll be good to go? The manual just mentions these features, but it doesn't go into any details.

Thanks for the info. I've thought of using a foot switch, but the notion
doesn't appeal to me. Apparently, all I've to do is plug in a mic to the jack in the back and hit the switch on the front panel to activate the VOX. I hope this is so. All along I thought I needed additional circuits for the VOX. Thanks and 73, KB2AMY Evan |
