The radio is in channel display mode. Look at page 40 of the manual to see
how to change this mode.
Goto MNU->RADIO->MEMORY->CHANNEL DISPLAY (which is 1-4-2) and turn it off.

Well, I just went out to the truck and checked, because I've never looked
at that menu option.
I always run APRS band A on VFO 144.39. Band B are the memory repeaters.
My normal readout for band B is:
[PTT] T - L 5
CORC #1
146.76
With MEMORY - CHANNEL DISPLAY on the readout becomes.
[PTT] T - L
CORC #1
CH-05
So the name of the channel shows up either way. the only difference is the
placement of the channel number. I also noticed the VS-3 didn't speak the
freq, only the channel and power.
An interesting side effect is that with this function turned on, my Band A
- APRS frequncy switched from VFO to Memory and I started TXing position
reports on the repeater freq. In the short time I played with this
function, I could not get the radio in VFO mode.

I have about 180 channels programmed with MCP-700 with names and that
parameter is OFF. What I have a problem with is Programmed Memory
channels. Whatever I put in last and store as any P.M. channel is the only
thing that is recalled with that P.M. channel. I wonder what I might be
doing wrong......

Yes, with it off, we still do not see the ALPHANUMERIC name above the
frequencey as the radio says it should.
Yet the ALPHANUMERIC LABEL does show up in the MENU if we do a
RADIO-MEMORY-CHANNEL-DISPLAY. But whether RADIO-MEMORY-DISPLAY-NAME is on
or off, the NAME for that channel does not appear anywhere on the front
panel... I think you are saying that "NAME" in this context does not
refer to the ALPHANUMERIC label for a chnnel, but refers to the "CH-23"
NAME of a channel. OK, we now understand that...
But still we cannot get the alphanumeric label to show up.. Im sure its
something obvious we are doing wrong...
THough I did get it to work on my CAR mobile, just neither of the D700s in
my office. We suspected a problem with the TEXT file we used in the MCP
program becaues it got garbled in email transfers, but RESETTING the radio
and manually programming it in doesn seem to work either...
Thanks
Still stumped...

I think they're havin' the same supplier problems that UPS had. Aerotron
who developed the ACSB that is to be used in the 220-222 MHz band went
belly up at about the time the reallocation was made.

IMNSHO the FCC should reassign 220-222 to the amateur service, since
the services for which it was taken from us haven't been implemented.

Speaking of the nearby 222 MHz Amateur Band... It's even less used then
144 and 440 MHz. The biggest swapfest of the year here in the Western
Washington area was last weekend and there were LOTS of 220 used radios for
sale at reasonable prices. This is a great opportunity for alternate
APRS and other packet nets...

If I understand the question properly, check the AUTO PM STORE (It may be
turned ON (I have it OFF in my system)
Page 45 of the Kenwood manual

The only way I could imagine APRS posits reaching the Internet from the
China interior would be by satellite!
Which brings the next question;
If a position report comes via satellite, how do we know that is the way it
was returned?
