I've contacted them a few times, but responses usually take a few
weeks, hence my asking here. I emailed this question to them sometime
in July but have yet to hear back.

There is also some information from the FAA:

I've used that as the basis for understanding and obtaining with my
requirements to achieve my license.

This article suggested that despite NOTAM 2/5319 that there was a procedure
for NORDO aircraft but didn't offer
any details:

This is *VERY* useful, and points me in the right direction! Thanks!

Good luck with your solo! I was at MSN once in the FBO and the counter
person was helping
a fellow call the tower and warn them he was about to fire up NORDO for his
departure. He was deaf and
flew into the TRSA (class C nowadays) to have some mechanical work done on
the plane. Apparently he worked it out
ahead of time and was accommodated by scheduling the arrival. I was told
they didn't even bother with light signals if
it was "green" and that while he was not a common visitor, it was considered
fairly routine.

Yeah, I've already talked with people at controlled airports for taking
off and landing, and each has their own preferred solution. So in
general, the best solution is to warn them I'm coming.

My sister told a story about an older woman who was deaf that learned to fly
at Green County Ohio (I19). Her instructor
couldn't sign and simply pasted post-it notes to the dash as quickly as
necessary to provide the necessary tutelage. She did have a
misadventure during her long cross country when she became lost and landed
at the first airfield she came across to gather
her bearings. Apparently she didn't spot the green/white/white beacon and
got frightened when the military people pulled up
to the C150 as she was rolling to a stop and so she gunned it and took off!
Her instructor was able to plot out the
likely airfield from her frantic clues after she navigated her way back and
he made a few diplomatic phone calls. I guess
the ANG folks were more concerned than alarmed and it was quickly dismissed
in good humor, but that was a simpler time.

Yowch! It seems to me that the most suspicious part of that is the fact
she took off without doing anything else?
