As part of this refactoring and testing of the modified octave script, the 700 mode has been put through the script, with a combination of trellis decoded and passed through bit fields.
Here are the transition probability mesh plots for all of the bit fields showing the likelihoods (in Z axis height) of a given bitfield transitioning from a given value (X-axis) to a corresponding value on the Y axis. These plots were generated with the ve9qrp10s sample which was also used for the 1600 mode trellis decoding experiments.
The voicing bit field appears to be the least impressive in terms of predictability, and this bitfield may not lend itself to trellis decoding without excess errors being introduced.
Here are the summary statistics for the bitfields following the addition of additive Gaussian white noise (AGWN) and then trellis decoding.

Having confirmed that the modified script still works with the codec2 700 mode, the next step is to support the 700B and 1300 bit/second modes.
In closing, all of this experimentation serves to highlight that black box vocoders subject to intellectual property protection being marketed by commercial equipment vendors do not allow this sort of experimentation by interested amateurs.
Very knowledgeable information about i like this services.
