Check at transcriptiongear.com (sm)

They have a service for $66 a month (not sure if it would be worth it to you).  Better if you can get the doctor to pay for a digital dictator with docking station, then they can upload the files to their computer, email them or FTP them to you and you can play them on express scribe.


You can also check ebay for used call in systems but not sure if they have them. 


Good luck!

Check out M-TEC online school. Seriously the
I attended it and had absolutely no problem finding a job.  If your GPA stays above 93% you have almost limitless options for employment after graduation.  It's a tough course, but that is why it prepares you so well for this VERY tough job!  They also cover technology issues.  Good luck, and I'm sorry you had a bad experience with a bad school.  I would recommend finding a school that helps with job placement once you graduate.
We like Dell. Go online and check (sm)

out prices when you configure what you want in yours.  We ordered our daughter one for Christmas and she's thrilled.  It was under $500 with an Intel Core-Duo processor, flat screen, etc.  Good price.


I say go with the online records searches - I had some "fishy" stuff I needed to check out.
Tried it on my own via the courts, court clerks, public records, etc., and it took me days and days of weeding, and found out a smidge of info.  Went online and paid $9.95 at one of the common search sites, and found out PAYDIRT! So much info, and all turned out true, that I was amazed! Best $10 I ever spent! This was on a "relative" who was trying to pull a con on an elderly relative.  The elderly relative still fell for the con, but my conscience is free, cause I warned her up front.  Everything we feared has come to pass, but at least we tried to give warnings up front. Found out aliases, financial info as in legal charges for bad checks, property titles, and a whole bunch more! For $10 and all on one form! Then called the court clerks back and verified all info, but I had to have the info first - backwards, as usual!
Bare Minerals IS available at ULTA online,Sephora online...(sm)

...and you don't have to sign up for a makeup "club," or anything. I totally agree with you that this makeup is great for all the basic purposes (coverage, lasting), but their slogan is "Makeup so healthy you can sleep in it." There is a delay in time between when you can apply your powder after moisturizer, but it is really worth it.


To go with your powder I recommend the "pump brush" offered at some of the cosmetic online stores. You fill the handle with your powder mixture (I mix two different powders, changing it up or down according to how much sun I've been getting) and the pump brush will distribute some to the bristles, tap and have at it! This is great for carrying it with you to minimize the loss into the lining of your handbag!


I cannot recommend Bare Minerals enough. I used to be a MAC convert, and have tried everything from Chanel to Maybelline--this product does not disappoint.


Try Radioshack. They usually have a fix for

everything.  I had to convert a 9 pin to USB and they had a device for it.


you can ask at RadioShack or Best Buy -
they are always full of info and might have a gadget or two.


RadioShack
I have an adapter for my 9-pin foot pedal I got at Radio Shack. I also have a USB port foot pedal but the adapter and 9-pin are what I am using now with my laptop. It is worth a try. Adapters are less expensive than a new foot pedal and I think you can return to Radio Shack if it doesn't work out.
yes...RadioShack has an adaptor, but--sm
I have said this before and I will say it again...it does NOT work with all footpedals. I tried the same thing and it all depends on how the footpedal is wired, particularly the three pedal type. The adaptor does not compensate for that. All it does is allow you to plug in USB port. you may be able to play the file, but fast forward and/or reverse will probably not work. I had to buy a USB pedal, which they provided at a reduced cost for me because my 15 pin was only 3 months old. JMO. but good luck.
Is a Dongle a Radioshack thing or
something from one of these companies?
Walmart, Target, Radioshack, Best Buy,
Etc, etc... they're everywhere. Some places may or may not carry them in the store or you may have to ask for them in store, but they're available everywhere online. Cheapest is maybe 30 bucks and average is 40-50.
RadioShack has several sizes of these right in the store. nm

Try calling local RadioShack
See my post above. I would just call if you have a RadioShack near you or try calling the 800 number if they have one? Hope this helps! Happy holidays!!!

TranscriptionGear.com has footpedals
and can deliver them quickly. I got a GearPlayer, and it's great, but it didn't work for every place I tested with. I got through the testing even without a foot pedal, but it is annoying. Do use the F keys if it lets you. That helps a lot.
transcriptiongear dot com - 10 pair for $11.00
they send 'em 10 pair to one package for $11.00........not that I need 10 pair but is how they sell them.......
Early Santa Gift - Noise-Cancelling Headphones under $15.00 RadioShack
Merry Christmas all - I thought I would pay this forward.  I was struggling with the dictators sound quality even with volume top level for computer sound card.  It was really affecting my production.  I tried everything - even typing slower and softer so that the keystroke sound would not distort the quality of the dictation.  I was recommended to Noise Cancelling Headphones from Radio Shack. Item # is 33-104.  Made by Presidian.  I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!  Not $300 or $400.00.  Just $14.97.  I thought to myself- o.k. for that price I will try them.  Anything has got to be better than this.  They rock and I'm passing it along.  I don't work for Radioshack or anything but was thinking about swapping my MQ stock for theirs now... LOL.

Transcriptiongear is a great site
I just purchased a new headset for my microcassette transcriber, and I actually chatted with a customer rep and she helped me find just the right one.  It was great.  I think it is 8-8 eastern time for the chat option though.  It was very helpful.  I cannot wait to get them.  My earbuds were bad-off, but I treated myself to a whole new headset that I'll be more comfortable with.

had a similar issue with TWC and they had done some upgrades and the modem I had was no longer compatible.  The tech knew what the problem was the minute he saw the modem, only it took me about 3 months and threatening to cancel for them to get out here. 
No brainer here. Stop payment on first check before you issue 2nd check.

I have had a check bounce over a boo-boo in the check book...NOT A DEADBEAT!!

DID you check with Social Security& does your son receive a check???

Go to SSA.gov and research the payee options.  You may have to use the search engine, but your answer to this particular issue should be there.


I am disabled and while my kids were minors, I had to fill out a form each year on how I, as the payee spent each and every penny of the money they received.  I don't see how his mother can justify how she spent his money for things that you normally would pay.


That said, he is getting Social Security right?  Is your son receiving a dependent check?  Under law, if a parent is disabled and has minor children, each and every one of those children also receive a check until they turn 18 or graduate from high school, which ever comes first.


The check is a percentage of your husbands, so for 800.00, your son should receive at least 350.00.  If you have not been getting this, they would pro-rate it back to when your husbands disability started and that in itself, could solve a lot of your financial problems.  You can also find this out on their website,  HTH


no - don't check out wildblue. check out hughesnet. sm
i was on wildblue. i absolutely HATED it. i paid $400 for install and equipment and bill was $51.51 a month for smallest plan. no bills, had to be direct debit from credit card or bank. wasn't a lot faster than dial up and i frequently went over my download limit so i had to upgrade to the $80/mo plan. speed was no faster on their "fastest plan". they had a 1-yr contract and only 1-yr warranty. well 20 days (kid you not) out of warranty my tria (the eye on the dish) went out and it cost me a total of $275 for replacement and tech call (had to wait a week and a half before tech could come and then he no showed and rescheduled for the next day stating he didn't have the equipment he needed to fix me and the repair order had been in for over a week by that time. no call to say he wasn't coming either, just no showed). they TRIED to sell me the entire package all over again to get me locked into another 1-yr contract and i declined. it was best in their book so your warranty and equipment would be "new". i had to tell them for 5 months to change which credit card to debit from, never could get it right. had to tell them for 3 months when my phone number changed. i could not wait until the day my 1-yr contract was over. have heard really good things about hughesnet. i think it is a tad more a month, but supposedly a lot faster than wildblue and not near as many problems from what i have heard from others. wildblue was down for an entire week at one point throughout the year i was on it. always got lost signals and page cannot be found multiple, multiple times throughout the day. i used wildblue with VPN (with transtech) and could not keep a connection enough to get a decent line count as i was dropping signals too much and it did slow it way down. i finally got clinic work rather than acute care where time and speed wasn't a factor. research message boards for complaints about wildblue and hughesnet before deciding. also hughesnet i think told me a 2-yr warranty rather than only the 1-yr with wildblue.

dating story - the stuff they make movies out of. I'm not kidding, either. I will be able to tell it soon, hopefully.


For what it's worth, I have found the most astounding dating site. Totally FREE. The best part of it is that there are forums there. http://www.plentyoffish.com


I buy online at...

Old Navy is one of my favorites.  Their stores are so small that they never have my size in stock anyway.  If you order from their website, the shipping is only $5 no matter how much you buy.  I also buy and sell a lot on ebay and half.com.  At Christmas time, I buy from Toys R Us online.  They usually have free shipping if your bill is over $50, and you can get the sale price.  I missed it yesterday.  I didn't realize that I could have purchased the 4-hour deals from Toys R Us on their website.  Oh well, maybe next year.


and I never used AOL online..sm

but  was a big investor back just before 2001 and I sold lots of shares when AOL was at 30....it subsequently went down to 9 or 11 and then was not on the market for a long time....

Look online

You can get some general info online.  But before signing up make sure you find out what the charges are for maintaining your account yearly, monthly or however.  That can make a big difference as to where you put your money.  


 


What's the best way to take an online

I have 4 pretty long transcription tests to take from an online site and am tearing my hair out!!!  I can't figure out Express Scribe (and I'm told it probably won't work), but using manual controls on these voice files s going to take me all night.  Is there a trick to it?


online BOS
I just love this online BOS.  Did you know all you have to do is bring it up, ctrl 4, put in a word, and it will search the whole BOS for you - Bingo!  there it is!  Love it.....I've been using it more than I ever did with the paperback.
Where is the online BOS?
nm
I use online
resources the most.

I think I might have developed this habit because I need to have glasses with bifocals now and can't afford them. Thus, using the web is easier for me.

I have pretty good luck with it too.
Anyone using online BOS?

I'm wondering if anyone is using the online BOS 3rd edition and if you like it? 


All comments appreciated.  - P.S. The company I work for uses these rules so the info is pertinent ... and I have no former editions.


Thanks.
