    Free App Allows Blind Hams to Work PSK31

04/05/2017

A free, new app — */Accessible Digipan <http://accessibledigipan.org/>/* 
— has been released that allows blind hams to operate PSK31. The 
download includes the app, audio tutorials, detailed written guides, and 
additional helpful resources, plus */DigiPan <http://www.digipan.net/>/* 
PSK31 and PSK63 software.

ARRL member Richard McDonald, KK6MRH, and Jim Snowbarger, WA0PSS — both 
blind — developed the program. “Until now, blind hams worldwide have not 
had any accessible program to work /PSK31/,” McDonald said. “Now they do.”

/Accessible Digipan/ brings together the most popular screen reader, 
/JAWS/, and /DigiPan/, McDonald said, and the app will work with many 
different kinds of rigs, interfaces, and /Windows/ versions.
