Does anyone a a repository of amateur radio related voice files
that could be shared?<br>
<br>
Since Allison voice files are designed more for the Asterisk phone
system than amateur radio, maybe someone has developed an amateur
library.<br>

NO, I meant just remove Google not any method of tts. The
Cepstral method will be an option although as you point out
you do need to buy the SW.<br>
<br>
The Allison files are GSM. Using the setup to form the call
and combine.sh do essentially the same thing. Perhaps we
should change the simple gsm to Allison gsm in the setup.<br

<div>Doug As you are aware some Amateurs have purchased voices
to get a high quality voice audio. Being blind it's a must
to buy voices and software much like buying a new handheld.
Please do not remove the TTS support as the feature works
if an. Amater wants to spend dollars. Maybe just remove the
Google TTS option from the auto configure scripts. </div>
<div>I do have a question about what script produces the GSM
audio files. What are the differences between GSM and the
Allison files we can hand edit and Cat together? Are they
the same type of file but with a clever script That parcels
the call sign ? If so what script is it and can it be used
for other messages? </div>

Good that you brought this up because this applies to
anyone setting up a node from the image. The Google
TTS has stopped working due to a change in Google's
terms of use. We will no longer be able to use it on
either the BBB or RPi2. This mostly effects the
weather scripts which depended on it heavily but is
also used to setup the voice ID if you select TTS
voice at setup.<br>
<br>
The easy way to fix it is to run the node setup again
( node-config.sh ) and hit enter through the
selections as it will remember your last selection.
When you get to the ID either select CW or simple gsm
voice ID, NOT tts. Continue through the script to the
end. Your ID should now be what you changed it to. You
may need to do an astres.sh to restart Asterisk but I
don't think that is necessary. <br>
<br>
The manual method is not hard but you have to
understand how to edit and save files etc. If that is
beyond the scope of you ability just use the simple
way above.<br>
<br>
To do it manually you would first edit the
/etc/asterisk/local/combine.sh script. Edit it an
change the call and whatever you want to say to your
text. Remember you are combining Allison voices
together so the words or letters have to be in the
Asterisk sounds directories. Then run the script to
create a custom gsm voice file. You then call this
file from rpt.conf<br>
<br>
edit the /etc/asterisk/rpt.conf file. Modify the
following lines -<br>
<br>
idrecording=/etc/asterisk/local/node-id<br>
;idrecording=|iDE WA3XYZ/L<br>
<br>
This shows the playing of the voice ID from a file
called node-id in /etc/asterisk/local<br>
<br>
If you commented that line out (; before it) and
uncommented the following line and replaced the call
with your call it would do a CW ID.<br>
<br>
Also if you are using a voice ID you can set the
idtalkover parameter to switch to CW when a station
keys up over your ID<br>
<br>
idtalkover=|iDE WA3XYZ/L<br>
<br>
Obviously change to your call. The CW ID's will send
any text you enter.<br>
<br>
We are working on a possible fix for the loss of
Google TTS but there is no great free solution for TTS
in Linux. The tts feature will be removed from the
script or modified in the next update.<br>
