Hello Rick, Richard, et al, Rick, I experience the exact same random Siri unlock prompt, from time-to-time, just as you described. I probably encounter the prompt 3 or 4 times a week, at most when asking Siri to call a contact. While I do find it curious, as I have witnessed non-Voice Over

My phone is locked. I just asked Siri to call NFB Newsline and it did with no fuss. I'm not sure what setting would impact this behavior unless it is Allow Siri when locked. If that is off, that would explain it I think. If that is on, then try toggling it off and then on again.

Hi! Robert: I use iOS myself, and it’s the iPhone and on the iPhone I carry what is called the Zillow app which is a type of walkie-talkie app. Hope that helps. Have a great weekend, and all the best. Michael G. MacKay BA, ‘05. Sent from my iPhone > On Jul 13, 2023, at 11:37, Richard Turner

I was a little curious and of course, there is a ton of options out there, many of which are mostly visually based to start with from my brief search. However, The National Association for Amateur Radio has some good information. Here is a link to the page with mp3 files for all the letters,

Hi Kelly, Asus is known to make very good routers with a heavy emphasis on gaming. I had a high-end Asus router quite a few years ago at my store and while it was good, at the time I did not like the interface and ended up replacing it with a Netgear Nighthawk, once again, one of their top
