Hi Harvey,  you can get the manual from Handi-Hams as a file attachment.
Also the programming software is very easy to use with JAWS.  I am not sure
about Window eyes.  All of the P.L. tones are in a list on the program.
When you get the radio you will need to go to menu 9 & set it for the
computer cable.  I don't program the radio from the front so I can't help
you with that.  Hope this helps.

Since I have now at least tentatively sold my A.D.I.-A.T.600 i have
ordered a Kenwood T.H.F.6.A. rig.  I have Lynn Roberts files on it
so I don't need them again, but does anyone have any helpful tips
about getting started and especially about setting P.L. tones
that are not in those files?

I am also told that this rig has a few more P.L. tones that are
not available on the T.H.F.6.A.  I think that radio has 37 tones
while the Kenwood has 42.  If the list of tones is not contained
within the previously referred to files does anyone else have a
list of them?  Also, is there an accessible manual for this rig
anywhere?

Finally, how speech friendly is the software for this rig which I
understand is downloadable from the Kenwood site?  Thanks.  73.
