When I make my audio files in Audacity, I export to a wav file then I export to ulaw. I then play the wav files back to verify they sound ok.
Like a few others on the list here, I'm pretty certain there are a few audio/broadcast/radio engineers in the woodpile, so, while it's good enough to use William or Allison via cepstral, there is nothing like actually, should you want, having a professional production or voice to do fixed announcements. I mean, TTS can only go so far, right? I know it's overkill (anything worth doing is worth doing to excess...;)), but, I have a complete radio (as in broadcast) studio setup at home; full tape (yes, even carts), a-d conversion, processing (dbx, orban) equipment, dynamic, condensor, ribbon mics, etc., and can deliver in multiple formats (mp3, wav, gsm, etc).
