I<br>
have some additional questions for you. What version of<br>
</span> the BBB software are you using?What utility is<br>
<div><div class="h5"> generating the MP3 file? What utility and options are you<br>
using to convert the MP3 file to WAV? If you are using the<br>
weather scripts that are available on the BBB release? You<br>
not have to convert anything with the already installed<br>
weather scripts as it's done for you.<br>

Hi<br>
All,<br>
<br>
I have a problem playing the MP3 audio from the local<br>
weather station CLE. I am running a BBB as a link to the<br>
local repeater. Everything is working, AllStar, EchoLink,<br>
Allison speaks the time. But, when I try to play the weather<br>
report MP3 file using localplay, the radio keys up but no<br>
audio. I've converted the MP3 to a 16 bit, 8 Khz WAV<br>
file, but the same thing. Any ideas?<br>
<br>
Thanks, JimK N8PXW<br>
