Tech Notes from the Field

Now doesn’t that take the cake. Just before taking some time off that Omnia 11 started to do its degraded audio again. Stereo squished in, dull, sounded almost mono. I was thinking maybe multipath as it is that time of year and the weather does mess with the signal here. Yet, if sitting in one place you can hear the audio change makes you scratch your head. The decision to swap out with another processor was made.

Ran an old 8500 for a few days. Other than the fact it is an older device, at least the audio remained consistent. Right before I left the boss man decided to get an Orban 8700 demo. I slapped it in and said let me know. After over a week no complaints from the programming. I decided to ship the Omnia in for “repair”.

I hope they find something, but I feel it will be the old we cannot find a problem. I guess I’ll let the world know what happens. BTW, the program director seems to be quite content with the 8700.
