Q: Some have described the KX1 as providing "accessibility" for blind hams. Can 
you describe this feature and what it can be used for? 

A: The KX1 includes full audio CW feedback on switch press, including in the 
menus and for frequency readout. This feature allows the KX1 to be used in 
situations where you can't conveniently look at the LED display, such as when 
operating mobile (bike or car). It also provides a backup to the display for 
use in very bright sunlight. Finally, it will make the KX1 immediately 
accessible by blind hams, a community that very much benefits from ham radio. 
We're happy to be able to help them out.
