I got sick of my video cassettes recorderer flashing me all the time, so i stabbed it in the eyes and now its flashlessy, as for what I meant by "desent" I just wanted a "radio" that would last longer than a couple of hours, I realize I should be more to the point next time, but I have a few things working against me, one being a Marine, I'm used to shiny things and noisy beeps, two, I take 9 medicines some for my heart and some for my cancer, so I get foggy braned sometimes....sorry for that one, and four, I ...uh....wait. I forgot. oh well mustnt been portant. but seriously, I do like my tid h3 and will probably grab another. I just thought there was maybe a better one to grab.....Thanks Rubi
