sp 202 issues

[philip raath <philraath@yahoo.com>]

hey, thank you all very much for the input. i'm
begginning to think i should have it looked at
eventually. i would send it in, but i was an ignorant
17 year old when i bought the thing, which was a
display unit, and never thought to ask, "hey, where's
my warranty card?"

anyway, thanks again.

take care, 

phil












Ever consider the notion that you may have a failure
with your unit? It
is possible that the reliability issue is a bad solder
connection or
failed piece of circuitry. I've been repairing gear
for a few decades
now and have seen about every possible failure. The
majority seem to be
a function of a failed solder connection. Be it the
connection itself 
or
the component further down the path. Just my two
cents...

Be Well

"Compassion is the sometimes fatal capacity for feeling what
it's like to live inside somebody else's skin.
 
 It is the knowledge that there can never really be any
peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally 
for you too."
