With digital modes, there is no problem of room noise activating the
VOX. All the audio is coming from the soundcard.
Yes, VOX per mode would be a great addition to the KX3/K3/K3S firmware.

Don is absolutely right about the usability of the VOX built into the
Elecraft rigs. That's what I use now since, since I upgraded my K3 to
have the internal sound card.
When I was using a SignaLink, i actually built a cable for the PTT. The
reason is that the K3 does not save VOX by mode and I was always getting
VOX on when I switched to voice modes. I have too many conversations
with others in my shack to be able to use VOX.
Now I'm back to having to remember to switch VOX on and off as I change
modes. When I forget I either don't transmit on my first digital
transmission, or I do transmit when I talk near the microphone. I'm a
really slow learner.

As for the SignaLink VOX, it is generated in the SignaLink from the
audio stream. The KX3, K3/K3S VOX will work just as well as the "PTT"
from the SignaLink. Due to the single channel implementation in the
SignaLink, it cannot be used for panadapter applications.
