Ron,
Thanks for posting this. I knew someone could do a better job of
describing this than I could.
Here are a few quirks I found in the short time playing with it:
Suppose it comes with the territory, but something like "mp3 player" is now
read as "mike papa three player". I may wind up setting this feature only
to programs where I expect to be reading call signs.
If a call has a letter"n" followed by a number, it reads it as a date:
N7ABC is read as "November seventh alpha bravo charlie".
The real speak voice pronounces "Lima" for the letter L as the Lima in Lima
bean, and not as Lima the capital of Peru.
Just kind of nit picking. I'm sure others will pop up, but I like this
feature very much.
