VH-150A Behind-the-Head VOX Lightweight Headset with Boom Mic
Behind-the-Head Design • VOX Hands-Free • Boom Microphone • PTT Compatible • Lightweight
The VH-150A Behind-the-Head VOX Lightweight Headset with Boom Mic is a hands-free audio accessory that sits comfortably behind the head, letting operators key up their two-way radio by voice instead of by hand. You hear incoming audio through the earpiece and respond through the boom microphone using VOX (Voice Operated eXchange) — or switch VOX off and run the radio with standard Push-to-Talk (PTT). It is built for VX-Series and EVX-Series users who need a genuine, comfortable VOX boom-mic headset for all-day wear.
Who It's For
Ideal for VX-260 Series, VX-450 Series, EVX-530 Series, and EVX-261 radio users who want hands-free VOX operation behind the head. Prefer an over-the-head fit?
