Why worry about a foot switch unless you're doing MM etc.  The switch ties you down  and is just one more thing to worry about.  Much easier to VOX...been doing it for 45 years. Bill V31XX/K4XS _____

Have to agree with this.  I started with a footswitch, then went to a hand switch, then to a switch mounted on the microphone stand.  After learning how to properly use VOX, all contests are now VOX.

Personally, I like using a foot switch. It prevents any of my salty language from going out over the air when I get frustrated! To each his own. Steve NN2NN Sent from my iPhone ______________________

I never had luck using Vox, But probably mainly because of my method of talking when running a Phone contest. I talk very quietly. I don't stress my Voice. It just drives me crazy to hear these guys
