Ooops...sorry guys, haven't checked the WriteLog folder on the Unix for 
weeks ;-(

Hmmm..I'm still in a "test" mode, but for those with more severe allergies, 
etc. which might affect the voice, I'd tend to say probably during an SSB 
contest.

Your welcome, Art (that was my dad's name :-)   I have it right next to the 
rig, so if I find myself needing a "clear"/QRN-free frequency for a weak DX 
station, I just reach over and BINGO...problem solved until I work 
him.  Then, <SWITCH> ... back on it comes.  Piece of cake.

Now if I can just help Software Logger Authors understand how my 
alternative voice-keying approach will get rid of the Robotic on-air crap 
sounds AND help save people's voices during the contest, *THAT* will solve 
another MAJOR PROBLEM (Demo remains at:  http://www.k6vva.com + the "Hot 
Rod Version" link)

Alas, our local club uses WriteLog Networked, and I just pre-recorded 62 
high-quality .wav files for Field Day.  Quality of recording & voice, 
yes.  Use for individual alpha characters in WriteLog *NOT* ;-(

Perhaps one day others will wake up and find what they are missing.

Hope you like your Ionic Breeze, and hope you got the whiz-bang one!

73...

Rick, K6VVA
