Hi, Mike.

You just have to record each letter of the alphabet and each number and name
it accordingly. A.wav B.wav 1.wav 2.wav etc...   If you want to sound even
smoother, you can record common combinations such as WA1, WA2, KA1, KA2,
etc. It's up to you on how much time you want to spend recording and then
editing your files. Use the %C in your SSB message to send the callsign of
the station you're working. Writelog will figure out each leter or
combination and play the corresponding files.

I lost my voice during the CQWW WPX SSB in 2005 and would have quit the
contest with around 800,000 points. Using the automated DVK in WL kept me in
the game and I ended up with over 1.4 million.

I have had voice problems that have pretty much kept me from voice contests 
for the last couple of years. I have used the sound card as a DVK in a 
contest where the exchange is the same every time, and I have to operate S&P

only. Such as this weekend's NAQP SSB. If I would try and run, I still would

have to answer the caller with my voice and then use the DVK for the 
exchange. Is there anyway I could type in the call of the responding station

and then maybe go to the next field and have WriteLog send his call? Could I

record letters and numbers and hit an F key and have it send it out?

I know this sounds rediculous and I feel dumb for even asking. I'm just so 
frustrated by this problem, which I had an operation for in December, and I 
can't even hold a 5 minute qso on 2m until I've lost my voice again. This 
sucks!

73, Mike K9MI
