Wasn't aware of that - maybe toggling is a good option though. Or it could literally just say *ANPR* each time the sound is played. Could it not be a user only message, sent through like a PM so not everyone in COP chat sees them all the time?

LFS can play one of these sounds when a message is sent:
- SND_SILENT, // default
- SND_MESSAGE, // text in chat
- SND_SYSMESSAGE, // sounds when you make a pit stop (i think) / LFS message
- SND_INVALIDKEY, // when you press an invalid key
- SND_ERROR, // <-- this is what plays when a call comes in / general LFS error

So you would have to replace the relevant sound file (but one which isn't used a lot) like invalid key, but Chuck would probably use error like for calls.

Yes, it could be a user-only message.
