Thanks Harold. Much of this codeing is new to me and I only got into the 
workings of audio compression in the last day or so. I'm using ffmpeg. 
My code can batch process so will run quickly through multiple files I 
process first through my text editor.

The positive responses posted here on greenkeys encouraged me to add 50 
Baud EU FSK audio to the 5bits.net site which may be useful. (And it was 
easy)
