[Dx4win] Voice Announcements

[Bud Semon N7CW]

Hi Dave,

I believe D4W only announces a new band/mode/country the first time it is
spotted.  So you can get many, many additional spots for new whatevers and
the program doesn't announce them.  Maybe that is what you are seeing?

I have been and continue to be perplexed by the fact that voice 
announcements of packet spots are intermittent.

I have Preferences | Packet 1 set as follows:

Warning messages	Ignore
Audio/Voice			Band/Call
DX Alerts			New Award Band
Callsign Alert		<blank>

This should give me a voice announcement for any Priority 1/2/3 spot.

I get very few Priority 1/2 spots, but lots of Priority 3 (New Band) spots,
and 
they do show up as red background/white letters.  However, not in all cases 
do I get a voice announcement.  The audio part is intermittent.

Is there some other setting I can look into, or perhaps there are some
"rules 
in the code" running that block certain voice announcements.  I'd like to
get 
this working 100%.
