Thank you, Paul, for your reply. Yes, I've had read that thread, and Background App Refresh is set to ON for CamerAlert. I should have mentioned that. Another thing that bugs me is that when CA is wor ... |

I am ready to give up on CamerAlert because I need to run it in the background and it is hopelessly unreliable.

I think CamerAlert is a great app but I do think it is a bit verbose. I also have an OriginB2. The OriginB2 says "Gatso thirty!" while CA says something like "Fixed speed camera, thirty miles per hour ... |

I can only thank you boys for nudging me on. I've done it. Dennis was right. Audacity does Ogg out of the box. It took about 30 minutes to make two files one for Wetherspoons ("Attention! Wetherspoons ... |
