I think it's an interesting idea. It seems it should be feasible to implement in firmware, but maybe non-trivial.
Thinking outside the box; what if you route the mic signal through the footswitch instead of PTT? Or maybe through a relay that the footswitch triggers... and keep VOX on all the time. 73, ~iain / N6ML On Fri, Aug 15, 2014 at 9:52 AM, Mike Reublin <n...@nf4l.com> wrote: > Is it possible you have confused PTT and VOX?
