>Hi Tom,

Don't Know about the drift. But the mike switch also disconnects the mike
element when it is not depressed thats why the vox will not work.. if your
using the hand mike you'd have to go in there and rewire it to get the vox
to work.  or just get a different mike one that is not a hand mike.
