Voice alert is a good concept and it works with minimal interruption.
I use it while mobile and it has allowed me to make a couple of
contacts on long trips that I otherwise wouldn't have.


I think, Voice Alert is good only on long trips. Meanwhile in very APRS 
active area, I turned it off, because some APRS stations send their packet 
with the subtone and is not very pleased for my ears. From time to time I 
hear packet transmission instead of voice calling.
