Good point, I had heard of folks using a foot switch for PTT instead of VOX, but never tried it. Have to check that out at some point. I just look forward to when I can force SSB Vox to always be off. Tired of switching modes and finding out that the Vox is on when the phone rings and the rig keys.
It is all coming down the pipe. I have really been enjoying the split band feature. A VFO on different bands, jumping back and forth. The rig just keeps getting better all the time.
