Hi.
Sometimes accessibility is the whole name of the game. For example, PSK31
is a nice mode from a weak signal point of view, but pretty hard to tune in
if you are blind. Also, care must be taken to make sure that the screen
reader software you are using doesn't interfere with the interface between
the rig and your computer, which usually works off the sound card.
