to open the message or to read it later. In both cases,
the message is saved in the received message folder,

so you can read it anytime.
If you choose “Read now”, the message is displayed,
to avoid distractions you can touch Read it to me, and
the Geosat 6 APRS will read the message out loud for
you thanks to the Text-to-speech technology.

You can choose to receive pop-up messages for your
personal messages or also for bulletin messages sent
to “ALL” in the APRS options menu. Touch the Options
button in the APRS menu, touch Messages on Map and
