they're a great thing for those of us who are blind? I'm not sure how you 
figure that, makes them like a yaesu if you ask me, tied forever to a PC and 
useless without with no support but anyway, I use the jaws curser a lot with 
ham radio deluxe when I use it and that works out fine though I haven't done 
it since I moved. I use it for remotely controlling the radio and since I 
moved I haven't hooked up my sound card interface yet so haven't done it but 
if I can free up an outlet for my rigblaster, or can find one that doesn't 
need to be plugged in, I may do it again. I'm limited to 2 outlets in a room 
in this place and with the computer and radio stuff plugged in over here, 
plus the tv in this room and cable box and all, this outlet is way loaded 
already. I like HRD though and with the jaws curser and a few work arounds, 
I could do anything with my TS-2000 when I was remotely controlling it.
