Just using the send button or pressing the PTT button will do it. that's all 
you need, unless you have full break in turned on, I found with mine I 
needed to either have that off, or press my straight key and hold it to make 
it work on CW that way but if full break in is off, which is just the vox 
button, just pressing the PTT button or send button will do the trick.
