Re: [all-audio] Olympus Voice Recorder
Yes, in fact, I have a friend who can probably do those kinds of fixes. As soon as we are more comfortable about going out places again, I'll take it to him and see if he'll take a look. I just thought someone here might have a quicker idea. I do appreciate your suggestions. Thanks.
