     While doing research on FRS radios a while back, there
are units available with vox but only the mid/higher
end models have things like an accessory microphone jack.
I know the Motorola one that I've borrowed from a friend
didn't have either a jack or vox but the reading material
that came with the radio appears to indicate that a vox
headset is available.
