I am new to using a C-phone, and I would appreciate any help.  If anyone has a user's manual for a Dictaphone Voice Processor, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

I AM SELLING MY DICTAPHONE C-PHONE AND HAVE LOWERED THE PRICE TO $130.00 PLUS SHIPPING.  IT WORKS GREAT AND WAS BARELY USED. EVERYTHING IS INCLUDED, INCLUDING THE FOOTPEDAL.  I ALSO HAVE (2) 9-PIN FOOT PEDALS THAT WORK FOR DICTAPHONE (NOT THE C-PHONE) AND ESCRIPTION, ETC. FOR $25.00 EACH PLUS SHIPPING.  EMAIL ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED.  I CAN SEND PICTURES OF THE ITEMS TO PEOPLE WHO ARE SERIOUSLY INTERESTED.  THANKS!

does anyone know if I can use a Dictaphone C-phone with digital phone service?  I'm moving and will have a regular phone jack and line.  thanks.

Does anyone one possibly have a PDF file with the operating instructions for a C-phone.  Please.

Thanks in advance

Also, I am very unfamiliar with the different types of equipment out there.  I have worked for only 1 company in 7 years and use their equipment.  Can you tell me if there is a difference in the 2 pieces.  Also, I used to use a Lanier station when I first bega, would this be considered a dictaphone?

Thanks.

I don't think anyone ever has the right to pick through the jobs they want, taking only the easy dictators.  If I was going to volunteer for extra work to be done on my time, I would ask if I could work on a specific account, something I'm familiar with.  I wouldn't give my extra time learning a new account.

Thanks to those like yourself for working the weekends.  Lord knows I sure don't want to!  Have a good one. :)

I posted yesterday asking if people made more or less with editing.

I will try to be more clear....if you are paid at 4 for editing and 8 for straight typing which would result in more money?  I am talking about a good platform, etc.  Perhaps if I put that it would be easier than to ask what the actual rates are.  I am trying to do a comparison.  Thanks to those who replied to my earlier post and to this one. 

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. 

Anyone else experience this problem with their C-phone?  Is there a problem with my C-phone?  At first I thought it was my telelphone line and called the phone company.  They sent a technician out to replace the lines and check the house, but the hum is still there on the C-phone.

It's driving me batty!

through cable, have you tried to take an incoming call?

We only have one phone line.  I rarely get/make calls and when I do we have cell phones.  I just started working with a C-phone and got digital phone.  I can go a month and my phone not ring, so far have gotten 3 calls today, but I'm afraid that if I try to answer the phone that I will lose my report. 

I guess I could pull up a report and have my husband call on his C-phone and test it that way and then if I lose it no biggie. 

and a foot pedal.  You call into a number (hopefully 800 number), put in your codes, and a voice file comes on.  You use the headphones and the foot pedal, and transcribe on your computer into a word processing program, then send the finished file back per their directions.

The c-phone is not connected to the internet in any way.  There is no downloading involved.  It is just a phone by means of which you get your voice files.  It needs a phone line and you stay on the line the entire time.

I am beginning a transcription job for an allergist on Monday and they are looking to me for advice on what type of transcriber to buy and where to purchase the machine.  Since it has been awhile since I have transcribed, I would like some assistance.  I live in TX. Thanks~Sherry
