John,
I just tried it again and there is definitley NO speech feedback in
setting the date.
However as stated earlier I now know the sequence of keypresses and
where the function first lands when set date and time is selected.
There is NO voice at all in the sequence of keypresses when setting date
and time. No matter how long I wait.
