A suggestion for all SSB operators who want Jon to upload their field day dialogue into N1MM, I would suggest using your phone with an app like “Twisted Wave.” The microphone on most quality smartphones is made to record legible messages. I have used by iphones and android phones for recording interviews and live reports. Belileve me, the microphones in these phones are good enough for a ham message (even for the hallowed K3 transceivers). Record the script according to Jon’s suggested script or come up with your own (as a wave file) and then attach it to your email to Jon to his suggested address, and don’t forget to thank Jon without criticizing his kind efforts.

I have now figured out how to use the voice playback feature of N1MM Logger+ to send prerecorded messages to the Elecraft K3. The N1MM programmers did all the hard work, and then craftily hid the instructions in the N1MM manual, a mere 844 page document. At any rate, anyone who sends me a simple wave file with the right words can have his own voice prerecorded and the requisite messages available at the push of a function key on the computer. I'll do the hard stuff, like equalization, compression, normalization and so on and make sure you are all set. Why your own voice? We don't want to confuse the ham on the far end of the QSO with a voice that sounds different. Your voice files will be called up when you long on with the Control-O command in N1MM. Attached is what I have recorded for myself. You will use the same words, or at least nearly so. You can use any recording program you want so long as it can produce a .wav file. Windows "Sound Recorder" works fine. Try to use a good mic in a quiet location to make the recording. Here is what you need to record * Seek you Field Day kilo kilo five whiskey * We are Sierra Tango X-ray eight alpha * Thank seventy three Cue Ess Ell? * Cue Are Zed? * Say again? * Class and section again? This can be all in one file with very brief pauses between phrases. Make sure to include your FCC call sign, as that is what you will use to log into the N1MM program to start your session logging. The exchanges are brief and to the point. If you want to chat, come to Museum Ships Weekend. Attached are some samples in my voice... Send your recording directly to me at [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> I'm waiting... Jon KF5TFJ PS pass this along to our coconspirators at TDX, Echo and KARS! _______________________________________________ BVARC mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> _______________________________________________ BVARC mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://mail.bvarc.org/mailman/listinfo/bvarc_bvarc.org Message delivered to [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>
