Hi,

Writing this from South Lake Tahoe. Man the area sure has built up since the last time I was here, probably 15 years ago. 

I hate all the noise and cig smoke in the Casinos. I like to play B J but I don’t like to lose money so I rarely gamble. I’ve done 10 Jazz cruises and I think I lost $20 one time. 

Your device sounds great but too much dough. 

BTW- I have a Book Sence I think it is called. I never could figure out how to use it. I’ve been thinking about selling it and buying a Victor stream. That way you could teach me how to use it. 
Also, do you use Echo Link? If so maybe you could teach me how to use it also. Years ago I used it but I know it has changed a whole lot since then. 

Did you go to Rehab to really get trained for something? Or did you go just so they would buy you that recorder? 

-Bob

Bob, it's not much larger than a cell phone.  I got it about 4 
years ago when I retired and I don't know who sells them because 
I got it from Rehab.  You could look it up on Amazon or google I 
bet and I think they cost around $350 or did then, but not sure 
of the cost.  All the buttons have speech output so it's easy to 
set up your recording mode, get a pretty good idea if your level 
is correct, get file lengths and battery status and much more.  
Am listening now on 7.189 if you want to try that, Jim WA6EKS
