Range radio - text and vox?

[Vudak]

You have to remember, channel 3 was built LONG before Range based Vox came to AH.

As such it was and still is a good tool. Its just not the tool a lot of AH'ers think it is.
It works perfectly within its parameters. You just need to know what those parameters are to use it effectively.

Personally I use it daily and would HATE to see it changed.

You want  range based communications, get a mic.

Fair enough, Ghost, but I am curious, what situations do you find it helpful for, that squad or mission or a tuned channel would not accomplish, if channel 3 was changed to a pure range?

I'm being serious here - I can't think of one...  Help me out?

Hear ya G - but as Vudak puts it - neither can I can think of a purpose for room text channel which not easily can be accommodated by other radio functions.

Until given a good reason - and since vox isn't an option for me, I still think this would be a good change.
