Keith,

Handiham volunteer Lyle Koehler, K0LR, has recorded the manuals for both the
new and older IC-706. They are available in MP3 audio on CD's with text file
lists of contents that can be Brailled. Lyle is an experienced 706 user and
our radio camp engineer at the Handiham radio camps, and he has given extra
tips on using keypads, etc.
