Hi Jim,
This is my second attempt to get a reply to you. My first one was 
interrupted by our two-year old, last night, and we're just now getting him 
to bed.

I would be glad to talk to you about programming the PSR500. It's a great 
radio and has performed yeoman duty both here at home and as I've traveled 
around the country forwork for the last two or three years (I'm not sure 
exactly how long I've had it).

I have a Radio Reference subscription and program the scanner using PSREDIT, 
a great program which is pretty accessible using JAWS, with some 
work-arounds, I can't speak specifically to how well it works with Window 
Eyes but suspect your mileage should be about the same.

We can chat by email, phone or Skype. I'd really like to get together on hf 
but have no antennas up and no budget for them, at the moment.

73,

Subject: Programming the PSR500 and radio reference

Ron, I have a PSR-500 and so far, have been able to get files
from another local ham when I need to make changes in the scanner
programming.  Could you contact me off list so we can discuss
this further? I have wanted to subscribe to Radio Reference for
some time, but don't know how accessible it is with WindowEyes so
haven't joined it yet.  Would love to learn more about both Radio
Reference and programming the PSR-500.  Sounds like you are an
expert in these areas.  73, Jim WA6EKS
