Hi Chris,

I looked briefly at and ask some questions about the vx5r when I was
looking for a handheld.  It looked to me like the vx5r mite be more of a
pain to use for a blind operator.  I chose the Icom IC-T90A, it really is
easy to use and the CW readout really does make a world of differance.

Just my opinion.
