Static IP address are not as easily attained as you would imply.
Posted By: sm on 2007-08-01
In Reply to: I am very well aware of the differences between the 2. As I stated below - ET
Also, most newcomers to the idea of FTP file transfer are not anywhere near the technical level of experience that you claim to have. My answers are being given to provide a SIMPLE solution for this person.
Static IP addresses are not free, either, so despite what you want to assert, your solution is not FREE.

Because they imply that not having your own (sm)
MT business somehow makes you a less-well-educated and less-valuable worker, and therefore somehow our lower pay is justified. What I'd like to know is, if she's got her own company, why is she charging the pittance that she's charging? That should be entry-level pay, not pay for expertise in a field where accuracy is key, and where there is always a lawsuit wolf at the doctor's door.
You imply people who don't are bad MTs or bad parents

Geeez, do you imply that you still doubt that I am an
American MT?
You need a psychiatrist.

Is this for Futurenet? Alot of times its not the problem on your end it is their recorder or whatever they do on their end.

Do you have DSL? If so, there are two possibilities. If there is a DSL filter on the phone jack you are plugged into... Take off the dsl filter. If there isn’t one.. Put one on. I had had a similar problem with my cphone a while back, and sometimes hanging up and dialing in again will fix it. Other times, it just wouldnt clear. I have a phone line through my cable provider now, and have not had a problem as of yet.

Sweatshirt with velcroed (sp?) socks, undies and dryer sheets stuck to it, black pants ,hair sticking up in spikes. Simple and funny!
Static on earphones
I am using the earphones which came with the Olympus DS-4000. I love them - they are the most comfortable earphones I've ever used. I've had them since about April 2007.
Over the last couple of months, they have developed a tinny, staticky sound. It comes and goes but the past day or so it has been pretty consistent.
I have tried adjusting the sound volume, the bass/treble, everything I can think of.
I can replace the earphones, but my concern is that the problem might be with my computer sound card, not with the earphones. Any suggestions about how to check this - or anybody else with this experience?
TIA.

Need help with static in voice files
Please help!!!
I am given .wav files, through a VPN connection, from a hospital that uses DVI/Fusion. I have an enormous amount of static on the files and it seems that no matter what I do, nothing helps. I have even been able to let the gal at the hospital listen over the phone to what I am dealing with and she says that her files sound nothing like what I am getting. I am assuming it has something to do with Fusion and I have called Dolbey numerous times to try to get them to help to no avail.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
FYI: I have tried playing the files through 4 different software programs and always get the same static.
Thanks much for trying!
Gossip. Saw both interviews. Grossly misdone by the media to imply US hatred. Johnny Depp lives has
dual citizenship in France and US as his wife is French. He does NOT hate USA. He vehemently denied this. He did "own" that he said the USA sometimes seemed like an aggressive puppy, jumping on other countries to make them do something the USA wanted. Had to do with the whole French thing during the war. That's ALL he said, and he later said he is not politically savvy and should have kept his mouth shut. He was sad for all the American soldiers being killed.
LOL! I remember static problems that were sooooo bad sm
that our technician told us to never wear nylon or silk undies, and to only wear cotton!
Static in digital dictation file
I'm just wondering if anyone else has this problem. The dictator is using a Sony, (dont know what model, but it is only about a year old), which uses a memory stick exactly like the ones used in the Sony cameras. I think he uses a microphone that he plugs into it. There are times when there is so much static I cant understand anything he's saying. Other times, it sounds very very clear. I know it isnt my equipment. It's his. I think this happens when he's moving around. Background noise doesnt bother me, I know it isnt background noise I'm hearing. I can tell the difference. Does anyone else have this problem? And is there some kind of filter that he or I could buy to clean this up. I'm using Express Scribe and tried their noise removal program, to no avail.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

You can do this very easily....sm
I've got the same type of setup that you're looking for. I use the Linksys routers and have a wireless router for the desktop PC that is on the other end of the house and use a notebook wireless card for my laptop. The entire setup took less than 10 minutes and their directions are idiot-proof to follow (trust me, I'm technically challenged and I got it right the first time - woo-hoo!)
Do be sure that you set up a password on your wireless access, otherwise someone could easily hack into your access. The easy directions for this was on their website as well.
Feel free to e-mail me if you have any specific questions and I'll try to help you.
Especially easily happens
because we use expanders. I once had a report sent back because I had expanded ankle pain out instead of abdominal pain (twice in the report!)... I couldn't believe I didn't catch it when proofing. I guess it must have been one of those brain fog days when I have trouble proofing (along with trying to hurry).
Really when you consider all the poor dictation (along with their actual content), how easy it is to transpose letters or hit the wrong key and expand out something totally off the wall in a particular document, trying to hurry as fast as we can while making tons of little decisions along the way ... we do pretty darn good!
Don't beat yourself up. :)
It can EASILY cause that feeling and yes, it is ...
working from home that does that.
It nags on you because it is "never completed", there's always more to do.
You need to get out of the house and do something OUTSIDE and something WITH OTHERS. That is why I volunteer (see my post a few threads below under "Answers").
You have to really keep a tight rein on disciplining yourself to keep a firm wide boundary between your home life and your work life because they are BOTH at home.
oh please, you can get AIDs here just as easily.

MDs not so easily impressed.
<MTSO for firing this lady>>
No, no, no, he was probably quite surprised and annoyed to be called by an a subcontractor he doesn't know from Jack, rather than the MTSO he hired to do his work. The MD is the one complaining to the MTSO when she doesn't meet TAT, and she CAN't meet it if the IC she hired doesn't send her work in on time. So what does she do? Offer the work to somebody who is more motivated than you. It's business.
You would be surprised how easily someone....sm
gets "lost in the shuffle." There are so many people applying for jobs and sending resumes. I found that the applicants who continued to check with me where much more apt to get positions. If I really didn't want someone because of their abilities, I would just tell them I had no openings, and they would stop contacting me. You don't want to bug them to the point of irritation, but you certainly should check.
I can easily see the difference.
I don't think you have a problem here.
You can easily do it without the macros. sm
Add an autocorrect. Now do a search for the .acl file by the date you made your change so you know you have the correct file. You need to make sure you are searching the hidden files and you probably need to change your search view to Details so you can see dates. You can right-click the file and send it to your CD (or however you want to transfer the file).
Do the same thing on the new computer so you can find the correct folder path and paste your file.
Sometimes the MS macros don't work because you probably have some entries that are multi-line with paragraphs.
Yes, I could easily become a recluse. Force myself to go out

Enrichment is done easily in IT, although it can be done in Shorthand sm
This is where you take several days' worth of work for one doctor (if you have your dictionaries divided by doctors) and run the Enrichment option in IT. It looks thru the work and picks out the common phrases and words and automatically adds them to your dictionary. It's really cool! Shorts you didn't know were there suddenly pop up for you all the time. A lot of times it's things it never even clicked to me that the doc says it all the time.
If you want to do this in Shorthand, it's not automatic but can be done. You need to have another piece of software (or a website) and you enter your text in there. It picks out the common phrases and lists them out for you. Then you have to manually go to ShortHand and enter them. Takes quite a bit longer, but still worth it!
I would suggest y'all head over to productivitytalk.com and start absorbing all the knowledge for your particular expander. There is just a ton of knowledge over there, it will blow you away!
and you could have just as easily skipped my posting by that reasoning
Okay, Message Board Police. Next time I decide to express my opinion I'll run it past you for permission first, okay?

Did you just say: You can very easily "add lines by inserting a word here and there"
I recall back in the mid 1990s, I was working with a fellow MT who was on midnight shift in medical records. He was making a huge sum of money and we all thought he was "the Whiz."
Come to find out, he was inserting phrases, embellishing dictated sentences I guess you'd call it, to get more lines per report. He got away with it for a number of years but was kissing up to the supervisor and director, always available to help out, nicest guy in the world - but a thief - who fooled us all.
Radiologist would surely notice eventually if not QA.
I had a lot of trouble with static in my C-phone. I replaced the phone cord and that made a big
difference. Also, have you tried a different headset? Also someone told me one time that there is a microphone under your volume control on the right corner of the C-phone. It's a tiny hole. If you break off a Q-tip and stick that into the hole that will squelch a lot of background noise and that worked as well. As far as getting your C-phone service, I heard that Dictaphone is "sunsetting" C-phones at the end of this year. Meaning, they aren't going to service them anymore as they are considered an obsolete technology. So, I would contact Dictaphone and see what your options are.
I know very little about Lanier equipment. I've not used it as extensively as Dictaphone. Is there a local appliance repair place in your area? You might ask one of those places to take a look at your equipment and see what they think. Kinda scary, cause they could do more harm than good, but maybe worth a shot.
Not much help, I know. But I thought I would share what tiny bit of obscure knowledge I do have. 
Help that is with the address bar
see above....
IP address?
Satellite will be through Wild Blue (dish) Ok, what do you mean by static IP. Is this something i ask them for?
What is the site address?
//
again, I did only address certain MQrs (sm)
and again, the ones who continuously whine and complain regarding MQ-this and MQ-that, it's nerve racking! My point, and this is the last time I will state it, is it is embarassing FOR ME, mind you, speaking for no one else here, to be associated with these whiny babies! Simple enough for ya? I am not backtracking at all, I simply retracted one word that seems to have gotten SOME OF YA riled up! So there, and I am NOT AND WILL NEVER BE a Clinton fan. That ticks me off more than anything anyone could say to me!
Anyone out there who works for MQ agree with me? Please come to my defense!
I have address resources available, but
the dictating physician will often forget to say the doctor's first name, and there will be 20 Dr. So-and-sos listed. Or they spell the easy names like Smith, but not the difficult ones that they mangle the pronunciation on. Then they carbon copy six different physicians. I've got the hospital directory, online hospital website, online physician address lookup, Google, and other resources, but it's still very time consuming.
I'm thinking I like Meditech better. LOL At least everything was in there. F7, F10, arrow down, save, you're done.
E-mail address
I will be glad to send you a copy of the E-mail that they sent me. But everyother time anyone has E-mailed me from this board it always states either in the subject line or somewhere that it is in response to a post on the board. This definitely was not and there is nowhere else that Spheris could have gotten my address and see above there was someone else that got it also. So they are getting it someway.
Internet address
Hello. I was wondering if anyone knew how to delete internet addresses that are seen when you hit the drop down box. I have a bunch of them that aren't valid anymore, and I want to get rid of them. Sorry, I don't know the technical wording, but hopefully you know what I mean. Thanks.
Can you post the web address please?
thanks
This will be the last time I will address
this because you are all so stupid you can't get it through your brains (?), I am one person and that is it. I say exactly what I want. I don't need anybody elses help on this board.
Can the ISP track to an address?
I didn't think it could. That would be great though. I feel bad for this person.

Sorry leaving address
I have almost five years experience, still probably considered a newbie when I see some with almost 5 to 6 times that much. But I just wanted to email someone who knows more about transcriptions companies than I do at present.
just need your your e-mail address
The Quick Reference (PDF format) I send via email. The manual is too large so I'll give you a link to go to and download it from.
Your e-mail address is ALL SHE NEEDS. (nt)
If I could address both posters ... sm
ALS: I read your post to my husband, who works on computers for a living, and he said it sounds like you lost an entire partition. I know that's not helpful and probably something you already figured out, but just wanted to offer something here. He also suggested running a virus scan as it sounds like something a virus might have caused. I sincerely wish you luck and hope that your files can be recovered. You might want to consult a local technician.
To the other poster: I am so sorry for your losses and I can't begin to imagine what you and your children have gone through. It sounds like today was difficult, to say the least. I think we've all been guilty at one time or another for saying something maybe we shouldn't have because of something going on within ourselves. I also send you sincere good wishes.
Do you have the exact web address? Please em it to me. Thanks! nm

I can't seem to get it back! I have windows XP. I've played around with the toolbars but I can't find my address bar! 
Any help would be appreciated for this technically challenged MT.

Did you get physical address??
Did you get the name of her company and the physical address? Phone number? There is a lesson to be learned here -- you still need to get all of this info in case something like this happens again. Unless you have a physical address you cannot send a demand letter with return receipt or serve her with papers or anything. Hopefully you do have that and can send her a written certified letter demanind payment within 10 days. Then onto small claims court. But none of this is possible without a physical address. Good luck. If you have her full name or business name and city -- you might be able to do a search to find a phone number. Did her check to you have a phone number on it? I always take a copy of the front of checks at least the first one so that I have their account number, etc. Also shows payment. Let us know how it comes out.
Needing help- how to get IP address
