Making and Answering VCO Calls

A person with hearing loss who uses their voice can use voice carry over (VCO) through the toll-free local relay service to communicate with a hearing person.

In a VCO (voice carry over) call, the hard of hearing person speaks directly to the other party. The Communications Assistant (CA) relays the response from the other person, which shows up as text on your VCO phone screen. You just read and talk.

It is not possible to speak to the other person or to the CA while the Dialogue VCO is receiving text messages. You must wait for the completed message as indi- cated by the word "GA" on the screen from the CA. It is important to let the oth- er party know it is their turn to speak by saying "GA" or "GO AHEAD."

Some relay services offer to relay calls from one VCO user to another VCO user,
