if by chance they didn't install this vgs1, how easy is it to do with no sighted assistance?

Congratulations on the TMV71A, and welcome to the list!!

You will find many very helpful and supportive people here.

In my opinion, the TMV71A is the most blind-friendly accessible VHF/UHF rig 
out there, and I am sure you will absolutely love it!  Virtually all 
functions and menu settings are accessible via the VGS1 voice vchip.


I don't know what would work best for you, but I have quite a few helpful 
files on the radio, including a great audio tutorial that was made by one of 
our list members--Steve Dresser (WA1RTB).

I can send you the files if you would like them.

Just give me a preferred private e-mail address, and I'll take it from 
there.
