I have to admit that I haven't been paying attention to decks lately. If I've got ~$1000 to spend, what's a good stealth recorder to get? Should I find a used D8 or D100 on eBay, or head straight into full digital? If so, what? Thanks! Nadyne. ------------------------------ From: Grego Sanguinetti Subject: DA-P1 won't eject Date: Fri, 24 Nov 2006 13:22:34 -0800 My DA-P1 hung with a tape in it and will not eject. I have tried going into test mode and ejecting. It shows no errors but the transport keys are non functional (outside test mode). I removed all the panels but cannot access the mechanism. I can't remove the top panel without being able to open the cassette tray! Is there a manual eject mechanism? I couldn't find anything in the owners or service manuals... ------------------------------ ** FOR YOUR REFERENCE ** To unsubscribe from this digest, please send email to dat-heads-unsubscribe@datheads.phish.net If your email address has changed, you may (optionally) send the message to dat-heads-unsubscribe-oldaddress=olddomain@datheads.phish.net and the old address will be removed.
