Gary,
it's the latest build of Jaws 11. Bob K3UL uses it with Window Eyes and
doesn't seem to have a problem so I guess it's a Jaws issue. Been meaning
to grab NVDA for some time and this is one more reason to do it. Other than
the access issues, I'm delighted with the rig's performance. They just
added an APF feature which makes it an even better CW rig. I'm thinking of
possibly looking for some one with programming ability who might be looking
for a good project which of course is writing a program to give us menu
access. Lou WA3MIX
