>Hello all!

>I was speaking with Mr.  Ralph Stewart of My Radio Store Dot Com.  I was
>inquiring about which XM Radio Receiver was accessible to   Blind Persons
>these days!  A number of changes have taken place which necessitated some
>changes in XM receivers.  The demodulator needed to be turned down to
>minimize interference to those listening to standard radio stations
>especially in an automobile. Some people didn't like Howard Stern coming
>over their favorite religious station as an example.  Many of the newer XM
>portables are using touch screens these days which aren't accessible for
us!
>Mr.  Stewart then said it's about time for XM receivers to have audio
>feedback or prompts for those who cannot see the screen.  Some engineers he
>spoke with said the chips used in XM receivers would easily support speech
>output.  He wants to know how many people would be interested in an XM
>Receiver with speech?  Please Email him at:
>ralphs at myradiostore.com.  Let's open the flood gates and let him hear from
>us!  He will forward our mail to appropriate engineers and personnel at XM
>Radio.  Perhaps we can make a difference! Please feel free to pass this on
>to any blindness lists you are on.

>Thanks for reading!
