I haven't done enough to say for sure but it seems like it can handle all the basic features and if interfaced with another program called IP sound it seems to be pretty workable with jfw but I haven't messed with it much yet. I plan to over the summer though. I've only started messing with it after a dam almost let go back in October and I was working the night shift at the EOC for a week and wanted to setup something like that since our HF is not working there right now. At least it works enough for me now that I can work with it, but I'd like to get it working better still. I think it will do pretty much everything if I take the time and work with it but I just haven't yet. Another issue I have is the radio desk computer com port assignments are strange so I had to find a way around that to get started because the com port the radio is hooked up to is comm. 5 and my packet setup's on comm. 1.

  Hi John:
  how do you find ham radio deluxe for operating remote on HF?
  What i'm wondering about is accessibility with Jaws or other screen readers.
  I have played around with Ham radio Deluxe a bit, but as yet have not had it
  hooked up to my ts2000.
  What sort of capabilities are availible, and which ones have you been able
  to access and use?
  A remote bass is an idea i have been tossing around for a while since my
  yard here is too small for any antennas bigger then a 20M dipole.
