Index Number: 11880 [This is from the Blink Talk Conference] Walter, I think I would agree with you about not liking the combination you mentioned. I've heard the Votalker and it's not great! What was it about the Enhanced Talk program you didn't like. I don't use it so I won't argue. Just curious, and I realize it is your opinion and will take it as that rather than a criticism from all.

Index Number: 12140 [This is from the Blink Talk Conference] My problems with the VOS talking program concerned mainly how it would get tangled up with Word Perfect. Speech software has come a long way since the enhansed PCtalking program came out thank goodness. With vos if you were doing a file transfer it was easy to get it messed up just by trying to turn on and off the voice. Today's programs make life much easier, faster, and much more troublefree. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!381!9.0!Grant.Downey Internet: Grant.Downey@p0.f9.n381.z1.fidonet.org

Index Number: 12313 [This is from the Blink Talk Conference] I wish I'd been able to be more envolved with WRBH but at that time it was a prety closed sort of group. WRBH in my mind was really what a Radio Reading Service should be and in fact I'd like to see more Radio Reading Services like that in other cities. I doubt the FCC would ever doit or that it would ever be a reality but I think everymajor city should have one of the public access frequencies available for Radio Reading Services. With the A.M. band in such trouble it might hapen some day with A.M. but I doubt it. It was really exciting the first day WRBH came on the air a dream that had takenyears to {bring to reality.l zVWalter Siren I believe was very much envolved with the committee that built the station. WRBH is one of its kind. Grant -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!129!89.0!Grant.Downey Internet: Grant.Downey@p0.f89.n129.z1.fidonet.org

Index Number: 12387 [This is from the Blink Talk Conference] WRBH was a station like no other. I wish I'd ben able to be envolved with the construction, emplimentation, organizational structure, and so fourth but at the time they were a prety closed group. Never the less the day WRBH finally did come on the air was exciting for New Orlean's blind and Louisiana's blind. I know this is a dream but it seems that one public access frequency down inthe lower numbers of the F.Ml. dile such as (88.5) should be alocated to radio reading services. I'm not sure how many cities would be able to get up the ogranizations to make them work but it's anidea. With A.M. loosing ground maybe something like that could come down the A.M. side. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!381!9.0!Grant.Downey Internet: Grant.Downey@p0.f9.n381.z1.fidonet.org
