Ben, do you know of any blind kid who would like to get into amateur radio and might benefit from my working with him or her and parents to make that possible? I did that for a friend when I was in high school and enjoyed it. I have a nice Ten-Tech 555 to sell and since it will probably go pretty cheap I would love to sell it to someone blind who needs a good rig and someone with the patience to train them how to use it.
