Re: No audio

Re: No audio
One more question.? At the bottom right of the screen, next to the battery charge graph, there is a "S" that blinks.? Can't find in the manual what it is, or if it is supposed to blink.? Ya'll know

Dave, one final thought - there are two Reset procedures and they do different things.? One is a Microprocessor reset and the other is a Set Mode reset.? You might try both just in case.? If that
