Thank you Peter

I was actually interested in possibility of running KDVR3 Contest Voice messages from Win-Test F(*) keys which appears to be possible from N1MM. 

Perhaps this would be a better question for Win-Test authors given the ever growing popularity of the K3.

Sorry, that should be mn009; for TX EQ - mn008; is of course RX EQ.

Can't see a way of doing it in Win-Test, Nick. One of the reasons why I 
abandoned my (paid for) Win-Test in favour of N1MM.
