Hi Bob&All, You got a Good Info Sheet, With enough "sighted only" stuff to
make it frustrating. But they did give a phone number for customer service,
and Most likely if you call the number given and explain what you need help
with, and your lack of sight, someone will help you. I've found that most
of the time, when approached properly, most people want to be of help, but
may not know exactly how to get you the information you neede. Also, check
Icanworkthisthing.com and handihams, Between the two of them, and folks on
this list, you'll likely find what you need. I've never had my hands on
either a THF6, a thk2at, or a pucsinkt, so I'm sorry I can't be of any real
assistance there. Danny Dyer, Wb4idu
