Kirk and all, I have been experimenting. I have two devices with Double Talk chips in them (My Romeo Pro 50 embosser and BrailleLite Millennium 40). The embosser works well; it uses the ltlk driver. There is, however, a slight issue with the BNS driver in Speakup. It is not possible to adjust the pitch and, at times, this becomes necessary as the pitch will drop to a low level randomly. Is this a Speakup issue or a limitation of the BNS driver? I notice the same problem with DECTalk (dectlk)--here, it is possible to adjust the pitch level, but it often jumps to a high level at times. Robby
