Hi List,

For the record, if you want to have ham callsigns read properly in JAWS 8.0, 
you do the following.

1.  Either press insert + F2 and choose configuration manager or press 
insert + F6 to bring it up directly.
2.  Depending upon whether you want the feature turned on for every program 
or just for your e-mail or browser or a database program:
A.  for global adjustments, press control + shift + D to bring up the 
default configuration file;
B.  just make the changes in specific programs and do not press control+ 
shift + D.
3.  From the main windows of the configuration manager, press alt + S for 
settings.
4.  Press T for text processing.
5.  Press the tab key 6 times or use the hotkey alt + A to move to the 
'spell alpha-numeric' radio buttons group.
6.  Using the arrow keys, choose your desired setting (the default is 
off)--spell or spell phonetically.
7.  press enter to close the text processing dialogue.
8.   press control + S to save the settings and then alt + F4 to exit the 
configuration manager.
