[jaws-uk] Re: accessible tv receiver

Paul,

The kit includes the aerial; a 6 inch spike on either a magnetised or rubber 
sucker base.  No signals come via the web at all.

You need to  create the odd frame in Jaws to make it more user friendly. 
Sighted help is needed to label the days in the electronic programme guide, 
but there is no problem reading today's listings

Good luck,

Ray
