Re: What has killed an MD disc (was WAV and minidisc)

["Rich Peet" <>]

I lost my best Warblers from this year when I droped a MD on pavement 
and gave it a small dent.  The dent caused all the recordings on this 
MD and the next ones as well to loose their TOC.  I had Aaron try to 
recover the data by putting a new TOC on but either I sent him the 
wrong MD or his way of fixing TOCS does not apply to a truely damaged 
TOC.  

I was able to fix the recorder by "reverse impact engineering".  This 
highly technical fix was done with a swiss army knife while waiting 
on a recording of ambience in a swamp :) 

I have also found it does damage to your MD and you will never be 
able to use it again if you leave them on airline seats when you 
leave a plane.
