A visually-impaired ham in this area wants to get on packet radio.
He owns a minimal-memory VIC-20 computer, but has trouble reading
even its already-large letters.  Is there a relatively easy way
to make even bigger letters?

I've used a VIC-20 on packet, so the interfacing and terminal-emulation
stuff I can do; but I've never designed my own character set or done
other "exotic" stuff (and my cbm-guru son is off at college!)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
