Hi Darrell,
You are correct. I have found the staff at HandiHams to be extremely
courteous, professional and very helpful.
Two thumbs Up and big thanks to Nancy, Pat, Jerry, Avery and all the
rest of the team there.
Thanks again.

Subject: Easy process to join Handihams!


Hi all,

Just wanted to post a quick update about my attempts to rejoin
Handihams.  I had e-mailed Nancy last week including my application.
She responded on Monday!  Speaking with her this morning, all has now
been completed.  I was also able to order the MP3 CD copy of Now Your
Talking so that I could help Karen study for her license.  Handihams
does make their disability verification process accessible.  They will
accept many forms of verification either via FAX or snail mail.  They
will even accept a copy of a mailing from an agency serving you as a
person with a qualifying disability!  You can't get anymore accessible
than this!

I am often writing about problems with accessibility issues inside and
outside the disability community.  I also like to highlight positive
experiences.  Doing this is even more important than discussing the
negatives.  It was a pleasure speaking with Nancy at Handihams this
morning. She is most helpful.  Thanks and 73 go to Nancy!
