Matt, Thanks for the advice but this still doesn't seem to resolve my particular issue I need to delay when XIPAR speaks so that it keys the radio and then waits 2 seconds before it starts talking ie right now I only hear the mins in the time because is keys up the radio and immediately starts speaking but the controller at the repeater hasn't engaged yet so the first words are being cut off Travis On 10/2/2011 12:13 PM, Matt Beasant wrote:

Hi Travis,

In rpt.conf there is a section called wait-times.

Here is a copy of the section I have in my rpt.conf file:

(located in the node definition stanza near the top of rpt.conf, under the node number) wait_times=wait-times; Wait times

(then located between the [morse] stanza and the [node] stanza)

; ; This section allows wait times for telemetry events to be adjusted ; A section for wait times can be defined for every repeater ;

[wait-times] telemwait=500 ; Time to wait before sending most telemetry idwait=500 ; Time to wait before starting ID unkeywait=500 ; Time to wait after unkey before sending CT's and link telemetry calltermwait=2000 ; Time to wait before announcing "call terminated"

Adjust the telemwait delay to suit your needs.

Cheers

Is there a way to delay the messages the XIPAR server put over the air?? The problem I am having is for example if I send the *81 command to get the current time I will only hear the min's because it is not keyed up long enough before it starts talking.

My guess there has to be a way to have it play a 2 second file of silence before any transmission On 10/2/2011 10:52 PM, Ken wrote:

Take the sound recordings that say "good morning" "Good after noon" etc., and re-record them - putting 2 seconds of dead air in front of the audio. Ken
