Maybe you have the mic gain menu item set high?  It should be low 
with a typical electret mic like the CM-500.

Subject: [Elecraft] URL, vox questions

Has anyone had any success going to the URL on p. 250 of KE7X's 
book? When I enter
http://www.ehow.com/computers/how_5232755_delete-clear-ports-use.html
<http://www.ehow.com/computers/>I get redirected to 
http://www.ehow.com/computers/ .

I'm trying to set up VOX so random low level noise in the room 
doesn't trigger it.
I'm using a Yamaha CM500 headset, and even breathing close to it 
triggers VOX. If I'm
working AFSK, and the phones are on the upper shelf om my desk, 
the keyboard triggers it.

VOX gain is 9, antiVOX is 74. Have I just not gone far enough 
with one or both these
settings? Anything else affect it?
