Hi Jeff,
Right now I am looking hard at a free program called Win95 for my Pro-95
scanner. It isn't the easiest thing in the world to use but I am actually
getting the hang of it. If you can use the jaws cursor or its equivalent in
Window Eyes, you can make it work, I think. The jury is still out on that.
Have you played around with the Radio Shack scanner programming software? I
wonder if it is any friendlier to speech than this one. I looked briefly at
Scancat but that looks almost completely unusable by a blind person.
Take care and very 73.
Kevin :)

Thanks Steve. Is there anyone out there that is using any other
trunktracker software other then the BC245XLT's Interface? It is hard to
get around because there is a visual representation of the keypad on your
monitor, but it is useful for reading the radio's display when you want to
know that unknown frequency or TG. I only use the 245 every now and then
for monitoring Motorola type I or IIi hybrid systems and those are gradually
being phased out in my area and everyone i either moving to at least type
II or digital. I have found tt difficult to program in a type I fleet map
on the BC250D and when reading the software manual for the E-scanner program
it didn't impress me too much, and I think that the most I would do with the
E-scanner program is just look at the dispaay if I can.
