HT1250+ programming
The Voice Storage is an option board that is available through Motorola that runs $75. Once that is installed the software recognizes it and then you can program those features.
The HT1250+ is capable of conventional (regular radio) as well as LTR Trunked and Passport. There are a few dealers that have LTR systems up. Most Kenwood dealers have a system that your HT1250+'s will work on. We (Two Way Radio of Carolina) have a system in downtown Charlotte, but that is all that it covers. Tim Rock down at South Sales has quite a few towers up in the Charlotte area, I think Carolina Communications has some in Monroe, and High Country Communications has some up in Elkin area.
Not many people are using Passport in the area. Passport lets your radio "roam" from tower to tower to support big coverage areas. Motorola pushed all its dealers really hard back in the early 2000's to join with all the other dealers to create a big network that could compete with Nextel, but the cost was too much.
