Not yet.

Not sure it will be coded shortly, because experimentations show that 
the computer doesn't "speak" quick enough in a understandable way to 
beat a trained operator. Another drawback of using a synthesized voice 
is the lack of correlation with the used phonetics by the calling 
station : If you hear "Zulu Lima 4 Blue Ocean" and reply "Zulu Lima 4 
Bravo Oscar", this will create a confusion in Roy's mind (no offense), 
especially if signals are weak.

To be short, it's not on our top priorities list ;-) , but thanks for 
your suggestion.
