Matt, I am fortunate to have an Apex notetaker which I use to
call the roll on a couple of nets. Of course that allows for
easy modification to the roster when folks are added or deleted.
I just turn off the speech and use the thumb keys to go through
the roster reading the pre-amble, roll call and conclusion to the
net. Of course I realize that not everyone has a notetaker or
braille display, in which case the Perkins is a must. 73, Jim

Yes, the good ol' Perkins Brailler's the best thing if you're not
near a computer. Will probably use that tonight, since our
repeater's now on EchoLink, and there probably will be more on
the
net.--Matt, N1IBB.

Linda,
Don't mean to be nasty, but best way is a good old perkins
braillewriter
and some paper.
Just put each call on a new line then any further comments like
listed
traffic.
If you have to go to another line for a particular checkin,
indent the
further lines.
That would be a real pain to do on a computer unless you have a
braille
display, although I'm sure folks do it.
