Hi All, We've been discussing accessibility via IOS apps for radios on the Active Elements reflector for a while, and more recently the advantages of generally holding a list of accessible amateur radio software. The Ipod touch can be bought for not much more than a voice chip and has enormous potential. I occasionally hear of several amateur apps that are being successfully used with Voice Over, from finding repeaters to the DX cluster, and it would be wonderful if we had a volunteer or two to start to collate a list of the good and the unusable. I would be happy to host the list on the AE web site. Who knows, with such a list on display, it might encourage amateur radio app developers to think about accessibility.
