I'll find out soon; I just ordered a VGS-1 (successor to the VS-3). :-)

<div>Does anyone know if this works for the 710? I do not recall seeing it documented in the 710 manuals. But nor did I remember it documented when I had a 700.<br>

<blockquote type="cite">If you have the VS-3 chip in your 0700 radio, it will spell the call sign of the sending<br>
station on all messages sent to you. It will do this for all messages sent to your call sign,<br>
regardless of SSID. This is especially useful when you are in your car. That way, you<br>
get allerted to messages sent to your home station even if you are mobile. In addition to<br>
this, if a message starts with a percent sign ‘%‘, it will spell the entire message. For<br>
example, if I send a message to Bob, WB4APR, the message would be:<br>
<br>
WU2Z>APRS::WB4APR %ICU2<br>
<br>
The D700 radio would then say:<br>
‘W’ ‘U’ ‘2’ ‘ZED’ I SEE YOU TOO<br>
<br>
In addition to the alphabet and numbers, it has some extra words. These words can be<br>
accessed by putting their codes in square brackets. For example:<br>
<br>
WU2Z>APRS::WB4APR :%ICU[6b]2[62]<br>
<br>
Will say:<br>
“I SEE YOU ON TWO METER”<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
And it goes on to provide the word table.<br>

<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Greetings, all.<br>
<br>
The next beta build of YAAC has been released, automatically upgradeable the usual way or downloadable from the usual sources:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.ka2ddo.org/ka2ddo/YAAC.html">http://www.ka2ddo.org/ka2ddo/YAAC.html</a><br>
<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/yetanotheraprsc">http://sourceforge.net/projects/yetanotheraprsc</a><br>
<br>
The changes to YAAC itself are fairly minor (a few bugfixes), but the important change is support for the first draft of the new soundsplugin, which allows YAAC to use your sound card to audibly report various events occurring in the APRS network, such as:</span></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="x_MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">new stations and objects being heard</span>
</li><li class="x_MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">stations reporting emergency and priority conditions</span>
</li><li class="x_MsoNormal" style=""><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">locally-controlled objects being taken over by other stations</span>
</li></ul>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><br>
Events can be reported as simple beeps, user-chosen sound files (WAV, etc.), or synthesized spoken speech (using the "espeak" speech synthesizer or other compatible applications).<br>
<br>
The soundsplugin is available for download from the same places as YAAC itself can be downloaded.<br>
<br>
Enjoy.<br>
