OK, here's the strange part, now when I type a capital letter, each letter is surrounded by 2 d so typing cap f would say dfd no pitch changes, even when I changed values in capstart-and-stop. Seemed that a while ago if you changed a parameter-and-it were out-of-range, it would mention its alowd values. I also thought there were some help system for these files? And lastly, I was most surprised that I type man speakup and there are no entries. Really I wish I could say any of the DecTalk issues had become better, but still even after an upgrade to FC9 and new colonels, still, seemingly when we encounter case changes, the pitch-and-rate get knocked down, I must alter the values by 1 to fixit, but even when I boot the machine, the pitch is set on 81 instead of 141, the rate is 10 instead of 7. Thanks in advance for any suggestions Hart
