I had a lot of trouble too. Here is the batch file I use and it seems to
work. You must have the proper config statements in your trlog configuring
file. Read the manual and the manual form SBDVP, VERY IMPORTANT information
found there.

Try ALL the test he gives, if you can't get the voice from your speaker it
is not going to work.

You need a config file for sbdvp in the current directory when you run
trlog.
sbdvpcfg.dat   (not necessarily the directory that has trlog.exe) and it
will have the names of the sound files to be executed. These are type.dvp


example entry is cqf1.dvp         Cq Mode sound in Cq moode

Use the record function to create them. The batch file will load them and
will save them if you make changes when you quit.

All this is VERY confusing but it does work.

BATCH FILE
c:\trlog\sbdvp\sbdvp -s2            This loads the messages
PAUSE
c:\trlog\tr.exe
c:\trlog\sbdvp\sbdvp -u             This unloads
pause
END BATCH
