[Elecraft] OT Burning CW onto Audio Cds

The current released version of my program MorseGen can create WAV and 
MP3 files of morse practise material, in a variety of formats from Koch 
training to randomly generated QSOs, which you could burn to C using the 
software Nigel mentions or indeed just about any software that comes 
bundled with a CD writer.

I now have a version 2.0 of MorseGen which can use the Microsoft Speech 
API to read back the text that has been sent after sending it. It can 
create WAV and MP3 files of this speech as well, plus it has a useful 
"batch" mode that lets you create a batch of test files unattended. It 
also generates .LRC files which can be used by some pocket MP3 players 
with a "karaoke" facility to display the text being sent on the player's 
display, while it sends it.

Unfortunately, due to lack of time and an upcoming holiday it's going to 
be a couple of months at least before I find the time to build a setup 
program, update the documentation and the web pages and make this 
version 2.0 available. MorseGen is a free program, but the consequence 
of that is that I can only spend my free time on it, and at the moment, 
I don't have any. :(

This free software will burn .mp3 or .wav files directly onto a cd so as to
be playable by audio cd players.
This is of interest if you want to have some mp3 files from the ARRL site so
that you can practise 'head' reading  while in your car.    The free
unregistered version has a limit of 10 tracks per cd burnt but I find that 9
ARRL mp3 files fills the disk anyway.
