In contrast, I am totally blind and find the Baofeng handheld a real
challenge to program manually. I have done it with difficulty. It is much
easier to program with the after market software using NVDA if you need a
screen reader.

Hi,
I have one of these radios and find it to be fairly easy to program. The =
speech output is a little bit limited there is documentation which lists =
the menus for those of us who can=E2=80=99t see and as long as you can = get
yourself that file you=E2=80=99ll have no problems.
Hope that helps.
