Well, I live in Michigan and the Tascam unit is now at a repair facility in California.
It cost me $50 to get it out of the first repair center, another $50 to ship it to Ca.
It would probably cost another $50 for them ship it back unrepaired, and I doubt if even then it would be shipped back anytime soon.
Best I can do I guess at this point is to let others know what I’m going through to avoid Tascam at least for repairs or warranty work.
