In wich case you would just need to hit the button to switch profiles until
the voice comes back on right?

If that's all it takes to make that radio mad is leaving it off a few days
I'm glad I don't have one, 2 meters is not a band I use much more than as a
utility band. Anyway, does that have the programmable memories like the
TM-G707A did? Where you can setup separate profiles for the radio, like for
different users or different times of day? If so, I wonder if you accidently
activated that, I know on the TM-G707A you'd have to activate the  voice
button for each programmed profile, there were 5 of them I think. It's a
thought but I know I hit that button on that radio more than once and it
sounds like exactly what you're seeing.
