[TenTec] Speech to Text

[kf6e at mail.com]

This just occurred to me: How would a deaf person tune in a SSB signal?  You can see a CW signal on the spectrum of CW Sweeper and other CW reading programs; likewise for PSK and RTTY.  But I can't imaging how you would tune in a SSB signal without hearing it.  Just lining it up within a spectral range wouldn't work, because of differences in mics, audio processors, propagation, speakers, etc.  Since speech-to-text software uses harmonic relationships to discriminate among sounds (I believe) being off by more than a few Hz could keep it from working at all.

I sometimes have trouble tuning in sideband (I am hearing-impaired, but not deaf), so if there's a way to augment the tuning process, I'd be very interested.
