WA3WSJ: K2 Digital Voice recorder?

[Edward R. Breneiser-2]

Hello all,

Has anyone installed a digital voice recorder in a K2? I activate
lighthouses and covered bridges all the time using ssb and it sure would
save my voice. I presently use my TS-570D only because it has the
optional voice recorder in it. My dream would be to use my K2 100w Rig,
which I only have the low power version now, that has a voice recorder
in it. By the way, I'm presently installing the KIO2 interface in my K2
and will use my Palm 105 (PDA) to control the K2. I will be able to
change bands, frequencies and send cw from preloaded messages in the
Palm - neat! The Palm 105 will even log and dupe for me! I then Hot-Sync
the Palm on my desktop and I have a nice log on it too to play around
with etc. I'm in the process of writing an article all about this
adventure.
72,
Ed, WA3WSJ

Radio Shack sells/sold a board for $9.95  which held up to 10 seconds..one
message.
I installed one in a small handheld box which i use for PTT / interface for
a computer headset /boom mike.  The"ALTEC' branded boom headset with
electret mic was closed out at Compusa for $7.95...and the combo sounds great.

The machines are taking over.  Seriously, some of the voice keyers you
hear in action during contests are pretty poor.

Another possible solution -- I believe some PDAs can play MP3 or WAV files,
so if you pre-record files on your home PC, they can be loaded onto the PDA
for playback.  You would have to create some sort of interface between the
PDA output and the mic jack and the PTT line if you do not use VOX.
I use Total Recorder (www.highcriteria.com) to create recordings on the
computer - most anything you can send through the sound card can be
recorded.
