The Audio-Reader Network provides a radio reading service for anyone who has difficulty reading printed material .
Coverage includes Kansas, western Missouri, and limited areas of Oklahoma, Colorado and Arkansas.
The signal is transmitted to the listener as a hidden carrier on a standard FM radio station or through local cable TV service. Some cable systems provide a signal that can be heard by hooking the cable up to an FM radio or stereo, but in most cases a special radio receiver is required. The radio is loaned to the listener for as long as there is a need, and there is no charge for service. The Audio-Reader signal is available worldwide nights and weekends on the Internet. The signal is transmitted from Lawrence Kansas via the Kansas Lions Sight Foundation Satellite Network.
