Abstract
A device has been designed and constructed to aid a blind radio station operator to cue phonograph recordings for broadcast. The device uses a hand-held detector to scan the record surface and generates a tone that changes markedly in frequency when the detector is passed over a band between selections. The use of the device allows a blind operator to work unassisted by sighted persons.
