Guys; This is my personal camera...and will probably be the last thing fixed. But lately I have had a problem with the tape wanting to load into the camera. I presume it's probably a bad mode switch...how hard is it to get at these. I don't do Camcorders..but willing to tackle my own. I did learn how to dis-assemble it, because I had to change the sound board previously. This seem to be an intermittant problem, because if I try to load a tape...after the 4th or 5th time it will load. TIA. -Ed- Ed Gaidies Tel-Tek Electronics Ontario-Canada teltek3@xxxxxxxxxxxx ***************************************************************************** Classifieds!
