Harold Rutila 974112 Posted December 17, 2007 at 10:31 PM Posted December 17, 2007 at 10:31 PM Hi guys, This sounds like an odd question: After I release the PTT key in VRC, the TX light remains on for about 1-2 seconds. Is there any way to get rid of the lag? And my second question: Is there any way to route an external (like on the headset) PTT key to work on VRC?

Joshua Black Posted December 19, 2007 at 09:51 PM Posted December 19, 2007 at 09:51 PM This sounds like an odd question:After I release the PTT key in VRC, the TX light remains on for about 1-2 seconds. Is there any way to get rid of the lag? That is totally normal, and I think that everyone has that. Until they creat an update for VRC that fixes that, you'll have deal with it. Although, it would be nice for it to go off right away so we know we are off. Is there any way to route an external (like on the headset) PTT key to work on VRC? Sorry, I'm not too sure of what your asking for that one... Joshua Black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Rutila 974112 Posted December 19, 2007 at 10:31 PM Author Posted December 19, 2007 at 10:31 PM Thanks Joshua, A lot of real world headsets have push to talk buttons installed right on the headset cord for convinience. I was wondering if there was a way for me to be able to somehow connect that PTT button from my headset to act as a PTT key in VRC or Squawkbox. If anyone has ideas as to how to tweak the delay that I was talking about, let me know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Herman 911755 Posted December 23, 2007 at 06:57 PM Posted December 23, 2007 at 06:57 PM (edited) A similar issue was discussed on the VRC forums a while back. Although the light may remain on for up to 2 seconds after releasing the PTT key, your transmission stops when you release the key. It was also mentioned that the state of the PTT key is polled every 10 milliseconds and p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ed to the voice library every time it is polled.
