Fast growing does not mean high paying nm
I worked fast food in high school,
mostly the drive-thru, and one morning when my alarm went off I sat up in bed and sat in bed and said "May I help you?"
I use Gear Player and Gear Xport. Love them! nm

GearXport / Gear Xport / Gear Player
Hi! Does anyone have a Gear Xport and/or Gear Player they are no longer using and could sell to me? I thought I'd try and buy used before going new. Let me know!
Thanks,
Traci
Prob is then you may get all fast fast fast talkers...not a fair way nm

depends how fast the MT is......No one would want to pay me by the hour because I'm fast.

how fast you can type, has little to do with how fast you can transcribe
Let's face it, we can only type as fast as the doctors dictate... worse, we can only type as fast as we can *understand* the doctors. Given someone who slurs or has a heavy accent, someone who clears his throat constantly or shuffles through the paper, given an unfamiliar account or work type, or an area we don't have much experience in and have to look up words, etc., any and all of these things combine to make typing speed not really relative at all. I personally type 110, but not when I'm transcribing. I tell most folks who ask, if you type 65-75 wpm, you're solidly in the ballpark for doing medical transcription.
Anyone using Gear player?
Sounds like a really good package deal, anyone using it? I am thinking of using the digital recorder and buying the gear player package.
TIA,
Sunny
Transcription Gear.....sm.......

Transcription gear
I use Olympus with the company I work for now and it works well. Transcription Gear has a system that I do not think is quite as expensive. There is Bytescribe as well, and Express scribe (which is free). I think almost any handheld recorder will work with these.
Gear Player is also...
an alternative.
gear player--sm
i downloaded the free 5 day trial of gear player to take a test. Cannot get it to work. The icon is on my desktop, but when i try to open it to drop the voice file in, it only appears for a few seconds and then nothing. any ideas??
try transcription gear.com nm

Gear Player is the best.
I have been using Gear Player for 4 years now and it just keeps getting better. It plays what I need it to play. I had tried StartStop before Gear Player and it was like I was back on Windows 95. Above all I love Gear Players support department, the guys are very friendly and can fix anything if you ever do need to call them.
Gear Player,
Gear Player, Transcription Gear, several places have those for sale. Also on E-Bay.
GEAR PLAYER---I was going to put it on e-Bay, but...sm
Email me if you are interested. I'll give you a great deal on it! It was brand new when I bought it and used it only for about a month.
Please let me know either way. I need the $$. Thanks!
Now, could you kick my butt into gear? LOL
I don't wanna work today. Not sure if it's the rainy weather or if it's just my total lack of motivation!
I purchased it through Transcription Gear
express scribe thing yet. Have too much work today to fiddle much with it. I appreciate everybody's advice and help on this.
Try Transcription gear.com website.
There should be an instruction booklet that came with the machine. Did you buy it new or used?
I got mine at Transcription Gear.
nm
Gear Player is one that's used often. Need to purchase it. nm
s
I bought Gear Player
a few years back and it's been really good. Just throw the file in there and transcribe away. Check it out. Their latest model is probably even better.
Transcription Gear FTP Question
Yes I leave Gearplayer and GearXport open all the time. That's how i get my files (GearXport). Have used Transcription Gear and GearXport, and recently GearFTP for 8 years now and love it. I, too, use Word XP but there are help screens in GearXport that help you write rules so that GearXport will direct the files to your clients. Once the files are transcribed and sent via GearXport, I then send the client a notification to pick their files up on Gear FTP. You don't have to do all that cutting and pasting. The rule writing can be quite cumbersome if you have never done it, but the tech support staff at Transcription Gear are very helpful. This really works great and will save you LOTS of time once you get your rules written. Best of luck to you!
Help with Gear Player linking
I'm trying to do a test file, which I haven't done in a long time, and the only footpedal I have is Gear Player. The sound file was sent on Windows Media Player. Are these compatible? Because I can't get this footpedal to link to it. Bear in mind I'm technically challenged and usually have help setting these things up. I found a foot pedal test picture that lit up when I pressed each of the three footpedal controls, so the problem seems to be that I don't know how to link it to Windows Media Player, or else this foot pedal is incompatible.
VPEDAL AND GEAR PLAYER
Help plz.. does anyone use the VPedal (from Career Step) and use it with Gear Player? I can get it to work with Express Scribe, but not Gear Player. It it even compatible? Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks!
VPEDAL AND GEAR PLAYER
Thank you Gail! I am sure they can help.
Transcription Gear/Xport- sm
We have been using this system for about a year, but have a recurring problem: We send our work through FTP but the office cannot always retrieve it and when I talk to the TG tech support they tell me that they can see that my work is "sitting in the FTP site and that the problem is with the doctor's office. This, of course, does not "sit well" with them and we are now setting up a meeting with their IT person, etc. Has anyone had a similar problem?
Thank you
Gear player or Bytescribe
Gear player vs. bytescribe... which is the more versatile?
I am currently using start/stop, but the voice files I get it will not let me speed them up. Dives me INSANE to listen to a sssssllllllllooooowwwwww dictator and not be able to speed them up.... actually would like to go whomp them up the side of the head  .. but since that is not an option...
Looks like Gear player you can buy just the software, but Bytescribe you have to pay another 50 bucks and get the foot pedal.. no option that I could find not to.
Thanks for any suggestions you all might have to offer.
Transcription Gear has them. Listed under accessories, I think. NM

Gear Player vs Express Scribe
could anyone please explain to me the difference between these two?? Express Scribe is free, but when am I missing something as to why I would pay to have Gear Player? they seem awfully similar..thanks.
Transcription Gear user questions - sm
I just started using Transcription Gear/FTP and have some questions.
Do you keep TG open all the time? Do you keep Gear Export open all the time?
How do you send your work to the doctor? Right now I create my document in Word XP, save it, exit, and then go through several steps to paste the document to the medical records FTP site. Seems like too many steps.
Any help with this and/or with TG in general would be most welcome.
Thank you.
Express Scribe, Gear Player, etc.
I have used Express Scribe for years and love it. I had to restore my Win XP computer and now it will not play the .dss files. I also have Express on my Vista without problems. I have done everything that I know to do to get it to work, installed an older version, downloaded the .dss files, etc. I am currently having to work on Gear Player or use my laptop to play the sound files. What else is everyone using out there besides Express, Gear, or Bytescribe?? Any help would be appreciated!
nope i'm goin, i've got my hula gear
 weee bye ya'll
Transcription Gear would have to approve the transfer of license from
I don't even know if they allow this. You should check into that first.
I have used a Digital Transcribe Station from Transcription Gear in lieu of a C phone just fine nm
We met in high school. My high school sweetheart
introduced us in a discussion over Ford versus Chevy versus Dodge. I used to race my Dodge Coronet with oldstyle 318 V-8 engine against the guys on the back roads and old highways. High school boyfriend had a Chevy truck. DH had a Ford Fairlane and later an AMC Javelin that just made me swoon. We didn't actually start dating until three years later, and my old high school boyfriend was a bit surprised at that since he introduced us.
RUN, RUN, RUN, as fast
You do not want to work for SS. They lie, steal lines, and will work you 7 days a week for as many hours as you are willing and you won't get paid accurately. Their line counter is always "down" and you can't track lines accurately.
run very fast
I too am an ex-IC for eTranz and this company is not professional at all. I consistently received paychecks 2 weeks late. Deb Garrison, the owner, if very unprofessional, hollering on the phone, hanging up on you. There is no communication in this company whatsoever. There are some very good companies out there. Please do not work for this company.
Get out fast!!
Well you definitely need to get out fast. Easier said than done I know I lived it. He sounds like my exhusband except throw in some cheating as well. He called me every name in the book and never wanted to do anything around the house but griped about it constantly. He stayed out and drank and everything else under the sun. He was also violent and would throw things and hit things. I feel your pain. It took me one night just finally getting my fill. No crying occurred like before. No yelling. Just me calming saying that was it I would be leaving and wanted a divorce and by two weeks I was gone along with our son, not quite 3 at the time. It is hard to leave financially and emotionally but sometimes you reach that point. Get out as best you can if you can!
Run as fast as you can
from AIM platform. It is more like typing in fields such as data entry.
I need help, fast!
I'm losing my job at the hospital in two weeks due to outsourcing and have decided to go it on my own. I have $800.00 in my budget to spend on a digital dictation system. Do you suggest I buy a phone-in system or an Internet software system and what brand names of each/or do you recommend? How much does the average one cost?
Thanks very much for your help. I have to move fast because my money is fast dwindling down and I want to make sure I make a wise and good investment so I can get moving in trying to find clinic accounts.

Need help fast
Before you jump into unchartered waters, I suggest that you start as an IC with a small national. You said you are a newbie. You still have much to learn. It takes a few years to hone your craft and be able to work independently without assistance. I would be afraid you would be biting off a little more than you can chew right now. Not trying to insult you. I have been around for a long time and would hate to see you make an investment like that and have to struggle. Find a position with a small national doing multispecialties for a couple to three years.
I'd go for a min. of $18 - now the fast MTs - sm
and the production guru's won't like this as I am sure they make more than that. But I only make $13-$15 now on production; some days down to $9/hour, depends on the dictator. But I think $18 is a fair wage, though I am sure many would disagree.
How fast can you run?
I would definitely not go that route. It would not be my choice of transcription platform!
They want to seem as fast as possible?
Maybe because the more lines their editors do, the more they (the company) get paid by the hospitals? I dunno ...
fast fox
Fast Fox by NCH, the Expander by the people that gave you Express Scribe. It has been good for me, it is easy and CHEAP. Go to NCH.com to download a free trial.
No I don't work for NCH but I tried it because I always like express scribe.
Fast dictators
When are these ******** doctors going to figure out that by dictating 100 miles per hour they are NOT going to get an accurate accounting of their patient encounter???? I feel like I'm being set up to fail. I don't care how much experience we transcriptionists have, if you're going to dictate a three page report if 1.5 minutes, SOMETHING is going to get missed or screwed up. I hope that extra three minutes they saved themselves throughout their busy day is worth it when the patient's chart gets the wrong data and somewhere down the line a big mistake is made. I've had a terrible morning, struggling with Mr. All-Important who dictates vital signs as one long rambling of numbers, never in the same order (one time it will be weight first, then pulse, blood pressure, respirations and the next time it will be blood pressure first, then weight, then respirations, then pulse) -- I've had it!!!!! I've got so many blanks in this batch of reports that I'm embarrased to turn them in.
Thanks for letting me vent. I'm not a bad transcriptionist.
Speaking too fast
Wake up call -- they speak too fast so they can blame you for any mistakes. The same with those who write poorly - "That's not what I said." Another reason is they are too cheap to take the time to speak slowly, have to keep making those $$$. It's all about the money - not the patient. It also gives them a sense of "power" over you. You'll catch on. 
Well it's pretty fast. SM
Brown your hamburger and maybe drain it if you don't buy extra lean. Add chopped onion and 2 cloves garlic, stir it all up till the onion is clear. Add salt, a smidge of sugar, just a little. Chopped bell pepper if you like that. Then add chili powder till it looks right, add canned tomatoes, tomato sauce (I don't like paste, but if you do, I guess you could use that). Ground cumin.
I'm no Texan, so I like beans in my chili. Pork & beans used to be $.22 per can so we got a taste for those in our chili, LOL. That's what I use.
Did I forget anything? Oh, if it looks too clear and orange, you can make a paste out of a tiny bit of flour and water and thicken it with that. Simmer. Serve.
Any chili cooks out there? Did I forget anything? I just make it without thinking!
You can also use chili seasoning in a packet but I don't like that as well, personally.
Not so fast sunnyMT (sm)
EMTEE's duh was not directed to you, it was to the subject they typed in their response (digital records instead of digital recorders)
Philips makes digital recorders that do not require a docking station. The DPM-9360 is one of the cheaper ones. It can use either a USB cable or memory card for transferring files.
Try looking at WinZip for securing the files. Email is not a secure method of tranfer and if the files were intercepted, it would be a HIPAA violation. Using a password to zip the files with WinZip will make them secure for transfer and zipping will make the files smaller allowing you to download them quicker.
