My Red LightSpeed

Not a bad Monday!

I'm getting braver. I didn't hook up both my writers today -- just the LightSpeed. I ended up with a 1.6 untran rate, which is improved over my 2.0 average. I'm still having trouble with numbers, but I chalk that up to my trying the advanced number buttons first, trying to re-learn how to write 5's and 0's, then switching back to the Classic number bar.

I had an awful problem and my software shut down. I learned a digitalCAT lesson. I have an extra sound file and an extra steno notes file going to my thumb drive. I haven't deleted anything from it for a couple of months. Apparently, it exceeded the space on the drive. When it did, it shut down digitalCAT. So lesson to digitalCAT users: clear off your thumb drive every so often if you're using it to make extra sound file copies!!!

But it was okay. I just kept writing, turned off the extra backup and started a new file (all without stopping the proceedings!!!) Back up in about five minutes, sending RT to the judge. Then I retranslated the notes from the SD card in the writer, which was really simple. I'm not sure if my sound file will sync up, though, or if that corrupted it. I haven't checked on that.

August 21, 2007

August 21 is the day I got my LightSpeed. I started a web page which was my blog, but I've moved over here for blogging. Click on the link above to visit my LightSpeed webpage. It will have pictures and concentrate on instructions. This blog will reflect my experiences with the writer.
