Hi Don;
I haven't tried comparing. I made the fatal error of thinking that eloquence 
would be best because of what I hear with jaws at work.  I may have to 
investigate and see if I can figure out how to change from one to another. 
Sounds like a good weekend project.

Richard,

I don't have any suggestions.  Have you tried the dec-talk access-32 which 
is shipped with window eyes?

When you go to "select synthesizer" it should be there if you hit the letter 
d to go to the synths starting with that letter.

Sorry if you've already tried that one, but that's really about all I can 
think of unless you have some other sapi voices on your machine.

Since I have them both on the same computer, its a shame that I can't make
window-eyes use the jfw eloquence.  I guess that would be to easy.  Are
there any other solutions other than dectalk or something similar?

Hi Richard,

Yes, jfw does have the better speech quality.  One reason is that they use a
proprietary version of Eloquence where Window eyes uses the off-the-shelf
version.  So if you have the two screen readers on the same machine they
will actually use two separate eloquence engines as window eyes cannot
detect
the presence of the jfw eloquence engine.

Hi everyone;
I am still trying to find a new home for my p2000 cw meter.  If you know any
blind hams that aren't on the list who might be interested keep me in mind.
I'm trying to get rid of priceless clutter.

Secondly as a totally unrelated question, has anyone here used both jfw and
window-eyes?  No we're not getting into the which is better battle but I
sent gw micro some e-mail asking how I could improve the speech quality
without going to a dectalk.  Jfw seems to have far superior speech.  I
thought that jfw used eloquence.  GW tells me that they too use eloquence.
If all that foolishness is correct I wonder why I'm not getting anything
like the same audio quality with window-eyes?
stumps me but lots of things do.
