If anyone has it on DAT, I have Salmon from Telluride as well as most of the others this year (as well as '98 and '99) and lots of other Salmon masters. I'm also looking for the one by Lake Superior, again DAT only.

From: acffhmorst <morst@itis.com> Subject: dcp-80 Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2001 21:06:14 -0500 It's not actually a sled, it's a power regulator. It takes anything from 12-24V in and converts it to 8.5V + heat. It's required for DC powering a D-10 and probably some 1989 sony videocamera too. I had to get one from sony in 1996, it was a difficult trick, they didn't have one for weeks then finally came up with one. I called the toll free phone #, I think it's 1-800-222-SONY You might try the Oades, http://www.oade.com and ask if they would have faster access than you would by calling sony. I believe mine cost between $65-$80. . . (in 1996) GOOD LUCK!!! -tom -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- From: Eliot Byron <ebyron@nyc.rr.com> Subject: dcp-80 Date: Fri, 06 Jul 2001 11:53:54 +0000 any of our vendors out there have a dcp-80 out there? it is the 12v sled for the sony tcd-d10 pro -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

Stops working altogether :o) But with the latest beta version of the Mia driver (6/29/2001), I've now been successful in copying about 2 hours worth of CD->DAT with the same dodgey chain as before, and the synch problem hasn't recurred. This is just temporary/testing anyway.
From: "George S." <fearless-pigeon@nac.net> Subject: roger waters "tour forest"...starting up again shortly.(long) Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2001 23:35:29 -0400 hi everyone, sorry for the delay in posts but literally when it rains...it pours. it seems we have come across our first setback as the copies of the toronto, ontario show (#7) were seriously flawed.and to make matters worse the person who submitted the recording falsly represented it as a dat clone when in fact it was sourced from a minidisc recording which was actually quite good in it's original presentation. the show was previously weeded on the echoes news group and had none of the flaws on which the discs that when out had from this so called dat source. i guess some people would do anything to get what they want as this person also requested a large number of shows for his contribution. this really saddens us as it was our wish to try to put out alternate sources of these shows than what was currently being circulated. we did make a solomn promise of annominity to all that joined the forest whether they choose to contribute or not , but if any of these people who decieved us ever decide to start trouble for another or make accusations against a fellow music enthusiasts on any of these honorable newsgroups we will post their names and let the communities be their judge. i have to admit that this also was our fault too. everything was going so smoothly that we really did not "inspect" the copies we sent out as we usually do in an effort to save some time. so to everyone in this tree we do apologize. this coupled with the destrucion of the hard drive on my burning station due to a faulty power supply has really crippled things the past few weeks. thankfully we should be up and running again shortly and we'll pick up where we left off. so to remedy the first problem we have a few other sources from this venue coming in thanks to some generous folks from the forest who helped in the past. again we'll pick the best one go with it. i will contact personally all those who were included on this tree and send the branches the new copies. i ask the leaves at this point to send blanks and postage to their branches in return. i'm really sorry the leaves have to take the hit on this one but it really is unfair to the branches who fulfilled their responsabilty and work to have the added expense of something that was not their fault. if someone has a better way for us to rectify this situation in a "fairer" manner we are open to any and all suggestions. secondly all the sign ups for trees #8+#9 were on that hard drive so when we are finally ready to roll we'll post the sign ups again. so please be aware that we have to start from scratch on this one. again i do want to personally apologize for this mis-hap because even with the decieving and the flaws the blame ultimately falls on us for not checking the discs first...a lesson we certainly will not repeat. and although we can definitly verify the venues and about 90% of the sources from well respected tapers and traders the few we have from unknown sources should be carefully scrutinized by the branches (and all) so we can make sure this doesn't happen again or is caught well before it is sent to the leaves or anyone else. lastly, if you all have not backed up your hard drives within the past week or so i urge you to do so. although that computer was mainly used for burning i did lose alot of memories with that drive for no reason but laziness. all those months of procrastinating will now haunt me for a long time and it was totally avoidable. so please heed my advice on this one and learn from the mistakes we have made. thanks again for your understanding and hopefully we'll make things right shortly. shine on george s.
From: "Dan Greenberg" <letitgro@warwick.net> Subject: Re: recharging eco-charges in the car Date: Wed, 11 Jul 2001 00:27:29 -0400 Some of you may remember my post a couple weeks ago (restated below) on this topic. I did get a half dozen varied responses from basically "no problem" to "no way", and several people asked for the outcome. So I did a test today and thought I'd share the results. First I used the two eco-charges for a bit over 5 hours. I then plugged a 160 watt continuous power DC inverter (with the Jensen name on it, but made by Recoton) into the cigarette lighter of my car without the car running, but with the car's ignition in 'accessory mode'. I then plugged a power strip into the inverter (even though the directions for the inverter say to not to). I plugged 2 of the SC-61 'Smart Chargers' into the power strip, and attached them to both eco-charge batteries. It took 8 hours for both of the green lights to come on (indicating the batteries were recharged), and then I left the connections hooked up for another 3 hours (for a total of 11 hours). About every hour or so I tested the car battery to see if there was any drop into voltage, but there did not appear to be any. I disconnected everything (after a total of 11 hours), and the car started right up. (Wahoo!) If curious, my car battery is 3 years old. In conclusion, it took longer to recharge it this way than compared to using AC in a house. I'm not sure if it would go faster if I were recharging while driving, but that test is for another day.

From: Jason Neely <bondibox@bellsouth.net> Subject: Error Correction Reply-To: bondibox@bellsouth.net Date: Wed, 11 Jul 2001 04:44:31 -0400 I understand that when looking at error rates displayed on a D100/M1, that it is normal for it not to be all zero's. Posters here have remarked that 0-4 is normal for them. I ran the test and got great results, but only after I had run the cleaning tape (new D100, about10 hours use). When dirty it had varied readings, and one pop at 14, which can't be good. The crux of the matter, is I suppose there is error correction that goes on, explaining the tolerance for small errors. At what point do the errors become unrecoverable? And what do the units on the error counter mean? bits dropped? If I repeat the test over the same length of tape should I expect to see similar readings? All in all, using the error counter as a guide, at what point should I run the cleaning tape? I want to make sure that when I do a digital dump of a show that I get the whole thing clean. Using a Mac, and a Midiman DIO 2496 card, is there a way I can verify my DAT extraction? How about if I had a PC with the same card? tia -jas

I would like $1050 for the set. Set of Audio Majic Excalibur II 15' mic cables. I'll take $400 for the pair. Kimber Kable KS 1030 Select Interconnect 1 meter for $700. Shure A27 Vertical T-bar for $35. Portabrace for a DA-P1 and has two upper pouches that were used for a V2 and a SBM-1, I'll take $100. Blue kiwi mic cables 15' for $15. **** I'm also looking to trade my Tascam DA-P1 for a Sony D-8 or M-100. I will need the 7 pin to coax cable and hopefully a battery sytem, and a home power source. My da-p1 has 500 hours, and comes with one oade power cable and battery system with charger, and a home power source. It is in great condition, and has slight paint rub on the corners, but no scratches. I'm looking to get a brand new Sony DAT with al the accesories I have, proof of the units hours, and $150, plus shipping. This may sound unreasonable to some, but I spent a lot of money on this unit to take an outright trade. Let me know ryan _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
