[Promotion-technology] Looking for Blind Person in Broadcasting

[William ODonnell]

In response to your enquiry regarding a keyboard to be used to navigate a touch screen, this could only be manipulated on an older analog system.  On newer digital computerized systems, this is something that is not as easily done since the meters for the audio quality and other output devices are shown on digital read-outs and not with analog amnimeeters.  Hope this helps, if you need any other additional information, do not hesitate to email me at the following.

I have a client who has a good opportunity to work for a radio station as an
announcer. They use the Google Radio Automation system with a touch screen. The
question is, could this be done with a keyboard? Our technology person is going
out with me to look at this situation, but I'm wondering if anyone out there
has anyone who is totally blind working at a radio station with automated
equipment. Some other terms given to me were SS 32 and D mark. My client needs
to do radio announcing, read the news, put in the commercials, or start them,
not create them, and do some live broadcasting on mike. They definitely will
hire him if the job could be made accessible.

Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
