[arm-allstar] is voicerss broken for anyone else?

[Dave Petrie]

Hi Patrick
I use the tts_audio.sh but i modified it for the other 4 voice choices so
now i have 5 choices and the normal download i get is ul format, then if i
want to convert it to something other like gsm or mp3, i use  Switch Plus
by NCH Software, I bought it a year ago on sale.
I make a text file then run the tts_audio.sh and then play it back on my
node to test it and keep changing a letter or two in the text file, it is
so quick and easy.
I can meet you on my node and demo if you would like, or i can put your
files up in my drop box, anything I can do to help let me know.
Dave
