Call Arrl as it may be old enough that it is not on the web.  I think it
was early mid 1980s.

   Thanks to all for responding.
I forget who, but somebody mentioned there was an article in QST about
modifying the TS-430S to have speech output.
I've been searching on the web for it and cant find it.
If somebody could give me a pointer in the right direction it would be
much appreciated.
Thanks again, and 73.
