[gps-talkusers] Re: Using BrailleNote gps and a guide dog

Hi Les and others,

I also use a guide dog and I find the "repeat this command" very useful with 
the next intersection command.  I just do a mx and the next intersection gets 
announced every 12 seconds.  I find that this is the command I want to check 
most, so having it repeated automatically really saves a lot of time. I use 
braille output only, so simply have to check the braille display every so often 
to see what's coming up.  You can change the repeat interval in the gps 
options menu if you want something other than every 12 seconds which is the 
default.

Hello Les and all!

I usually use dots 4 5 6 to find out my next intersection (when my
BrailleNote is not in Concord).  It's quite handy (no pun intended) to
press 4 5 6 with your right hand.

With a smile,
Karen
