Yes, I echo Nick's comments. Richard Oehm is very good, reasonably priced, and I've used him several times. Cindy ----- Original Message ----- From: "W.

I am very glad to be joining this email list. I realize that some of the questions or observations I might bring up have probably already been discussed on this communication. I have been an Optacon user since about 1976, until a couple of years ago when mine quit altogether. It doesn't work at all. I'm wondering if there is someone out there who would be able to look and see if it perhaps needs a battery. It's my second Optacon, but it's like the old original model. If you would like to contact me off list regarding this my email is lerae@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Thank you.
