HI Michael.  When you press Alt B, to bring up the list, you may have to
shift tab into the list box.  Atleast that is what I have to do with
window-eyes.  Once you are in the list box, simply hilight the callsign
you want to connect to and press enter.  After you are connected, press
space bar to transmit and again to go back to recieve.  Since you said
you saw the list, you are deffanatly on the list, but if there are many
stations on line, chances are, you aren't getting a chance to read the
whole list before it refreshes.  If you are using Window-eyes, I can give
you a couple of tricks that make it easier to tell if you are
transmitting or not.  I would imagine the same thintg is possible with
Jaws, but I am not familiar enough with it to say for sure.  In any case,
if you check the title bar,  you will see a countdown timer when you are
transmitting.  You have about three minutes before you time out.

By the way, we have a new IRLP node here in the Phoenix area.  It is node
762, if anyone has access to an IRLP system, I would love to work you.
