For you, are cicadas going to be one of the things to "turn off"?

Can you read English reasonably well? Having Live Transcribe on an Android phone (or other similar apps on an Android or iPhone) might might really help you get what is being said to you. Google Live Transcribe and you will get a lot more information about it than I can write here.

I have a direct connected TTY and a regular landline phone and want to add a Caller ID Name & Number Display Unit. What order should these be connected starting at the phone jack outlet in the wall.

zephren Whether your suggestion of sign language is very helpful or not soooo depends on where a person is living. I have been deaf in one ear for many, many years and have a very profound loss in the other one one for years. I took beginning sign at a local community college two different...

I can't help but wonder just what you problem with using a TTY is? The keyboard on a full size TTY is sooo similar to a PC keyboard even in size.

This reminded me that when I was in grade school one of the smallest gals in my class started French Horn which is also far from small. She picked it because the it was one of the instruments the school district would provide. She liked it so well that she played it all her life including paid...

SneskerNet You are forgetting that she didn't say it had to be portable. Thus, you are leaving out piano, organ and electronic keyboards.

I knew I could do that!!! BUT wanted to thank him for either knowing or have already looked it up and thus saving me the time and effort to look it up.

Thank you, Old Analog, I always lose trace of the conversion formula going either way.

Clydesumm What do you mead by yky????

The question of working or not is also dependent on employers willing to hire. Some re very willing to do some things slightly differently and others shut down at the point of finding out someone is deaf and not willing to hire after hearing that one word. If that is what a person encounters...

The way you have written in composing your post I get the impression that you read at least English just fine. Do you happen to have a cell phone that runs the Android OS (I do not have an iPhone so do not know how what is available for them works.)? One thing I find really helpful is make...

How much is a portable power bank that would hold enough to recharge them nightly? Or a solar power bank that could be carried while recharging on the go during the day.

I have started seeing TV ads for rechargeable hearing aids. There seems to me to be a major problem with that idea in that you can't hear with them while recharging? Years ago I had some rechargeable 675 batteries that worked but ran down before the end of my day. It was inconvenient but in...

Mike Bir https://www.innocaption.com/ In the mean time while you are trying to finish your research about a CI, you might want to visit the site I referenced above. They provide captioning on cell phones that can be set so that calls to your regular cell number use automatic call forwarding and...

There is a difference between BEST and how to handle a situation where the deaf and hearing do not know each others language well but need to communicate in the meantime? How do you suggest doing it?

I am glad I found this again. I have been wanting to thank SeakerNet for the yellow text suggestion. I have left mine set that way and am enjoying it on everything I have been able to set that way.

I decided to set Black Background with Yellow Texts after seeing SeakerNet's mention of setting his that way. It has just been a few days as I didn't change mine the day SeakerNet posted the idea but I think I am going to like it. Wish we could set to all caps on everything as well.

I can't come up with examples at the moment but think I have seen some that scroll rather that just show a certain amount at a time and then show another amount. It seems easier to read scrolling captions.
