John,

You've probably heard enough from me on this stuff, but  the interface 
(Rigblaster or any other) doesn't  really interact with the screen 
reader.  It's your choice of digital mode software that needs to work 
with the screen reader.

Having said that, I know there are some high end units like Microham 
stuff that  has router software associated with  the interface that 
would need to  be screen reader friendly to  get it set up and make 
internal changes.    For other interfaces, such as ones with built in 
sound cards,  there is some driver installation involved, but no 
different than any other  piece of  computer gear attached to the pc.

I didn't spend much time at it today, but did put a dozen or so in the 
log for the ARRL RTTY Round-up.

73, good luck,
Steve KW3A
