Besides with the savings in tapes will probably pay for itself eventually. For less than the price of a checkup you can probably find an iRiver 120 on ebay. Just load rockbox on it with the recording enhancement pack. There are also a lot of JB3s selling used on taperssection. You also have the r9 and microtrack that sell for only a few hundred more than you will probably be charged for the dat fix. Stay Kind, Dana ============================================================================ From: sec1968@ezl.com Subject: stopping on it's own Date: Sun, 25 Jun 2006 21:02:08 -0500 Hi all. Maybe someone can deduce a fix for this problem to keep me from sending my deck in to Pro Digital for the 3rd time in 3 years. A couple weeks ago I taped a show using my 7 yr old M1, with no problems. 2 night later, i'm taping 4 bands, changing tapes & batteries mid way thru. During the last band, I noticed that the time on the deck read 00:00. Thinking I ran out of tape, I put my gear up and thought nothing more about it. A week ago saturday I was taping a show, and at about the 2:15:00 or so area, the M1 just stopped recording on it's own, unloaded and reloaded the tape. I quickly hit record again and it went for another 5 or so min. before stopping again. I had plenty of tape left (90m) and the batteries had 1 or 2 bars left. Last night it did it again, about the same mark in time, a 90m tape with plenty of room to roll with. Any suggestions from the masses? Thanks. shane ------------------------------ From: dolphin smile Subject: ISO Arthur Lee Benefit 6/23/06 Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2006 05:38:13 -0700 (PDT) would love to trade for this, if anyone out there happened to trade. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
