Larry, I don't think that you are going to find a satellite receiver with speech output. The particular unit that I have is pretty straight forward, and the buttons are raised and are in a straight row at the bottom of the unit. They appear as little dots that are easy to feel. There are long bar type buttons on the front panel off to the left that perform other functions, and on the boombox itself there is a cluster of raised buttons; volume up, volume down, off, and mute. When you change channels you hear a little beep that tells you that you are indeed changing channels. The Source has this particular unit on sale for I believe to be $129. This of course, does not include the boombox that the unit clips into. This is a good unit for people with low vision, as the faunt on the display window can be changed. Ideally it would be nice to have a unit that would tell you verbally what song is playing. I am wondering if a speech device could be hooked up to the unit to read out the information on the display window. I think that it is dooable. This would be similar to the device that reads out the frequencies on ham radio equipment. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Larry N" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC Audio Discussion List" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2007 10:10 PM Subject: Accessible Sirius Receiver Suggestions Please?
