So... I’ve been researching several options, finally downloaded the asterisk-addons, and installed. The mp3 download of the ARRL News plays, however, I’d like to have the idtalkover=|i<call sign> function as well. I get the Morse Code id at the end of the ARRL News, but not during at the defined interval. Any ideas?

Of course, it depends on how often you've got your ID set to go off.

context = radio

;idrecording = w5omr-repeater                ; this plays a file that's located in /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/
idrecording = |iW5OMR/R                      ;node Identification. the lower case i means it's to be CW.
accountcode=RADIO
hangtime=400                    ; repeater hang-time. I like 'em short.
;althangtime=4000
totime=540000                                   ;time out timer in milliseconds 60000 miliseconds in a minute.
idtime=600000                                   ;how often node id's in milliseconds.
;politeid=3000                    ; how long allstar waits to id while there's a carrier present before it ID's anyway.

When you're setting up your script to play Newsline, just add your id file to the end of the newsline file.

$~> sox newline_file(x) id_file newsline_file_id(x)
(where 'x' denotes which newsline file, since the one long file is chunked up into several pieces.)

That's -one- way to look at it... I'm sure there are several others.
