Rick,
I think you need to consider how difficult it will be for your operators to
remember which memory does what.
Based on my experience, fewer voice memories that provide the basic functions
will be much more effective, and get used more often.
I would suggest a shorter list:
1: CQ
2: Exchange
3: Thanks QRZ
4: Our Callsign
5: His callsign
6: Again?
7: Longer CQ (optional)
All other fills should probably handled "manually" as the operator determines
the best way.
73,
Bob N5NJ

Subject: [WriteLog] Why still no SSB message Mod ?
As Field Day approaches, I've been asked by the local club facilitator to
pull together the SSB voice-keying stuff.
I was shocked to find that the latest WL still only has 10 SSB message
options compared to 20 for CW. Has this long overdue mod fallen through
the cracks? It's really a super "must" handling ALL individual component
part variatinos in the Fall SS as well.
A special bank of one-button color-coded Macro keys will trigger the
following pre-records, but with only 10 current SSB positions, and a
realistic need for at least 15 or 16 options, we're screwed:
SSB Macro Key triggers
==================
1. Their Call
2. Our Call (non-phonetic)
3. Our Call (phonetic)
4. Full Exchange
5. Class (only)
6. Section (only)
7. Again?
8. CQ (option 1 - short)
9. CQ (option 2 - long)
10. Please Repeat
11. Your Class?
12. Your Section?
13. QRZ?
14. QSL
15. Roger
16. Thanks!
-----------------
Perhaps there is a "Mystery Switch" somewhere to enable more than 10 SSB
messages???
