Kathleen, it is unfortunate that a lot of ham stuff is inaccessible. The
digital version of QST is not accessible, and from what I've heard there
aren't any plans to make it so. Do you have the bard app on your phone?

Subject: [ourplace] Re: Updating Open Drive
I'm going to consolidate all this and the one long message. I really don't
feel like changing the subject and it will be a pain anyway. But first off I
would like to say John I hope you get your open drive thing resolved. That
would be a good thing. Second I want to the amateur radio meeting tonight
and they were doing all these digital modes with FL did you and stuff like
that which blind people can't use. I don't understand why the developers of
these programs aren't even making any effort to make this stuff work with
our screen readers. It's just totally insane. I mean it's really crazy. I
mean it should work with our stuff but no way. Anyway I want to do packet on
the iPhone and from what the gentleman said tonight it's not possible
because he said the office visual know why the hell can't these developers
do the stuff right? Sorry I'm going on a rant but man this is ridiculous.
Honestly it really is. It seems like some of these places want to leave the
blind out. On another note
I got to meet a retired person that works as a fire dispatcher. I'm not
him tonight at the meeting he said he had to dispatch during 911. Well of
course you know me I opened up my big mouth and said is there anyway that
you can get me a tour of the fire dispatch center? He said he couldn't
promise that he would try. Well he gave me a business card right at this
point I can't read it. So it's just staying in my purse until I get somebody
to read me the thing or help me put his contact information in my iPhone
because of course the card is in print. But anyway the guy that owns the
company where we need it is definitely an Apple person. Anyway this other
guy wants this guy named Craig to come over and help me set up my Apple
computer. Well of course I said invite so I said no and Rob said no he
didn't think he would. But anyway if I can get Apple computer set up and of
course it has snowed I forgot it like Marty's does then I'll have to learn
how to use it. I don't know how long it'l
l take me but I'll sure work on it. So I guess most of the meeting I just
kind of sat there and listen to what they were talking about. Anyway the sky
this a retired fire dispatcher is a magician. Of course that's kind a visual
I mean he was showing people magic tricks and stuff like that. And he asked
me if I wanted to send a card to take home and I said well no it really
wouldn't help me any and he said he understood. But I do have his contact
information so that'll be cool. If you can get me that tour I really like
it. The other thing I forgot to ask the guy that owns the company where we
need out is how do we get out of the building in case of an emergency?
That's something I kind of need to know especially if there some reason we
need to leave. But anyway the jackhammer people didn't come yet today and
that's a good thing. They just rolled in hammered. Oh boy and that was still
kind of loud but I can always deal with it. But anyway I'm going to call the
library and order some b
ooks. Honestly I really am. But hey what can you do. Anyway I don't know if
I'm going to take my test next month I might. But we'll just have to see.
Other than that things are OK but I was just kind of frustrated with the
fact that some of the stuff that side of him operator shoes are not
accessible and sorry for the rant but man I think we should be treated equal
equally. And also there was a guess you were the next friend of mine that
came up tonight. Oh well. Anyway I have decided to end the friendship with
Todd and I'm not even going to tell him. Because of what he did to my friend
Charles. I'm not too happy about it and I'm not gonna talk about it either.
Because I think what he did wasn't right just suffice it to say that Todd
fired Charles is the control for the traffic now and I don't think he had
any reason to do that other than just being greedy and selfish.

Hi all, does anyone have the latest installer for Open Drive? I got a
pop up baloon when I restarted my computer that said to click to update
Open Drive, but I couldn't get to it. I can't seem to find any other way
to update my current version. I suppose I could uninstall it and
reinstall the version and see if it gives me the option to update, but I
figure the new installer would be easier! Besides, I'm lazy! GRIN!
Thanks in advance:
JJ
