Hi all: 

This maybe a good time to spearhead an email campaign to Mike Dishop of Dishtronix/Tentec to see if we can get some blind accessibility into the up and coming TT gear. 
With a Super Eagle, Omni vii+ and Orion III in the works, there's no reason why at least 1 of these futures couldn't be accessible. At the very least we could get S-9, frequency and mode announcement and the ability to program any menus with software installed on a windows machine connected via USB. They could even do S-9, frequency and mode announcement through this program as well. Most of us are using a computer in our shacks for logging etc, so why not a program that can control a rig fully from initial setup to everyday operation? I believe JJ Radio can do this with the KWs. I wish There was a program like this for Icom and Yaesu. Maybe TT can get 1. 
Just throwing something against the wall and hoping it sticks.
