This is the scanner I ask about a while back.  No one on this list seemd to 
have much info on it.  I hear it's not easy to program for a blind person. 
I finally ended up getting the pro-97 on sale at Radio Shack.  One of the 
local hams emailed me the p97 file for the programming software win97.  I'm 
very happy with scanner.
