For reasons I don't understand, my brain is unable (at present) to communicate properly to my (fully working) voice box. My voice box was checked with a camera (down my nose) a few months ago.
Although my speech sounds OK to me (clarity and loudness) apparently it is a whisper and hard to understand. All the time I feel breathless.I am told this is all a result of my brain bleed and it will, in the end, recover. I have to be patient!
Although I can manage short speech periods on the air (VHF/UHF UKAC sessions, for 30-60 minutes and on our Monday 2m net for similar times) I find voice QSOs effortful, hence why I use WSPR and other digital modes a lot right now. Hopefully thing will improve in 2015.

Get well Roger. Rest your voice and keep on with the digital modes, including CW if you are able.

Jeff, thank you for your kind wishes.
Don't rest your voice too much. Your brain needs practice to allow you to recover by rewiring itself. Recovery from a CVA (stroke) can be slow depending on various factors.
Good luck with your recovery.

Thanks Guy. No I won't rest my voice. I agree my brain needs to relearn.
