Do you have to press the PTT button to talk, or can you set it to allow talking without pressing the PTT?

You must press the button, however, don't press it too many times or it will break.

With this earbud it is necessary to press button to talk. You must press button and wait a second or so before talking so your voice is not clipped. They are not like cell phone earbuds where you just plug in and talk or listen.

I use mine with a pair of Cobra radios & I do have to push the button to talk, even on VOX.

the inline controls only allow you to play/pause, volume, forward, repeat, and make and answer calls. there's no mute button on it.

You have to push the button on the microphone or base to talk but you can listen "hands free".

I don't think that it has an actual designated mute button but there may be a way of muting by hitting the call waiting button on this additional handset or int. on the base unit of the original unit to which you are adding this one. You might check with Panasonic technical on this as I don't want to mislead anyone. When you get an official answer, would you enlighten me please?

Yes, you can lock it on talk with the handheld microphone. I believe that will work.

Tools>Settings>Language>voice. Make sure you have one selected. American Jill or Australian Karen have good TTS.

Without Headset is this not possible, the button VOX "free speaking" exist only on the headset. The devise has only a button PTT (push to talk).

Not that I know of...it might be a sub function of one of the other buttons but I have never tried. I don't like to use it for calls. Its a little awkward and both sides of the conversation sound weird

Hi,Not sure if you can disable the talking feature, but you can lower the volume.

The Push To Talk button is actually two buttons. Pressing the top half of the button will actually transmit at full power, but if you press the bottom half it transmits in a low power setting. This is used if you know your party is close and you want to preserve battery life. Try again making sure you are both pressing the top of the Push To Talk button. Edit: I forgot to add that Channels 1, 2, and 3, are FRS channels and will only transmit in low power no matter which half of the button is pressed. Make sure you are on a GMRS channel (4 or higher).

They sure do! Be aware that midland has a slight delay on key up (both PTT and VOX) so you need to do something like clearing your throught or sZying "Ahhhh" before talking.

I believe there is an app for PTT. The phone doesn't do it by itself out of the box like the nextel phones did.

It does NOT require pushing a button. However, the first few seconds of voice are not transmitted. It takes a few seconds for activation to kick in. You can have your parent say something (eg one-two-three-four), to trigger the vac, then speak whatever he/she wants to say.

Yes. It only shows up when you are already speaking on the phone and it is one of the "soft" buttons - i.e. it shows on the display and you press the bar underneath it to mute or unmute. I hope this helps.

There's no mute button, but the on/off button is right on the base. Whenever I want to mute, I just switch it off.

Yes it has PTT(Push to talk) which is basically a two way radio from one handset to another....

YES. Problem is that if you enable that in the sound settings it's delayed slightly and you won't be able to talk or sing.
