For some reason I am finding my new DecTalk ISA card goes into some weird mode where the 1st digit of a rank expression is lost, for example: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, when this problem happens, the very 1st digit is totally ignored, I mean it is never spoken, and it spells out the other 2 letters however. Would anyone out there know what causes this? Some unusual character stream from a text file might do this; change into some mode I'm not aware of, if so how do I pin it down? I heard that maxi-aids websight was selling their DecTalk ISA OEM cards, apparently due to some silly rumor ISA is deprecated, there is absolutely no documentation, no driver disk, just the card itself. So I decided I would get two of them for their amazing closeout price. If we can get USB to support ISA cards, I am going to be very excited about having these cards on hand. I hope this is appropriate, but I would like to know where I might be able to find a working DoubleTalk LT unit. I am able to repair the serial cable to any working LT that simply requires a new serial cable. If you have a reasonable price on a more-or-less working DT unit, please email me directly.
