  1. Right you are...ok is the absolute BEST in customer service!!! I bought a Pro-Dytter dropzone.com and it never worked. I emailed Mads and he said to send it in and they would have a look at it. A week and a half later I received a brand new Solo in the mail at no charge. I will always give them my business.
  2. I will take it up and try, but... I emailed L&B, heard back within 3 minutes.... we went back and forth and they walked me through the replacement, what it did, no self test, no lights, just 1 beep etc.... Mads Larsen said "it is broken, send it to us" so, I am gonna go with what he said, especially since he said they would repair it for the DONUT ($0)!!
  3. after emailing L&B... they said it is indeed... fuct! BUT they repair all their products for the donut (0)... so I gotta ship it to them... I DID download, print AND read the manual... it doesn't self test, light anything... beeps the one time and that is it. I am going mental, I must say...
  4. I tried all that... I took out the batteries, waited the allotted time then rplaced them...once I screw the cover on the back I tap MODE and it beeps once... then, nothing. no lights, no self test, nothing... L&B said it has a problem... BY the way, I am keepin an eye in your s listed on Ebay!!!
  5. "L&B is really good about taking care of us."- after a couple of emails I was told to ship it back in a padded envelope with a turnaround of 10 days and get this "ALL REPAIRS ARE FREE!!!" OK, now THAT is service... Thanks for the tip!!
  6. ahhh... the problems is solved.. it is broken, I THINK.... Nothing happens, no READY light flash of any kind... I took the batteries out, waited... replaced them and then pressed MODE once, it beeped once and then ....nothing. Following your advice, I pressed MODE once and waited for the light in order to access programming mode...nothing still...
  7. I bought a used Dytter off here (I know, my 1st problem).. anyway, the batteries were dead so I replaced tham according to the manual I downloaded... I wait 120 seconds, replace the batteries and press MODE... (at this point it should self-test, correct)...but the Dytter beeps once then nothing happens.... I have never had any experience with Dytters, does this sound like something is wrong? It is getting power apparently... anyone got any advice?
  8. says press either button and wait for self test... I waited and nothing happened...
  9. I recently bought a used Pro Dytter and wonders if anyone out there could give me some assisitance working it... I downloaded the manual from L&B's website... am wondering if it is broken possibly... anyone with one care to explain how to operate it? when I replace the battery cover it beeps once, then I get nothing... thanks!
  10. point taken... I don't plan on putting the thing on now, as I have been told that already... any advice on models would be greatly appreciated... I have heard that some shake when the wearer is in a sit position... basically, It WILL NOT BE WORN for the recommended time... I have, although new to the sport, already lost one friend and do recognize the inherent dangers of skydiving...as I said, this is just a quest to figure out what would work best (for down the road)... and my jump numbers are pretty accurate, I AM still UNDER 100 jumps...and I willl search the thread about side mounts...thanks!
  11. Does anyone have any advice for someone who wants to just take video for my friends and I to watch? I am not flying camera for anything other than laughing about later with friends...have been looking at the Sony CX12... I have a Bonehead Mindwarp (just purchased) so it would be a side-mounted camera...A friend recommended the PC 107.... anyone with knowledge, please help!!! thanks in advance for ANY and ALL advice!!!
  12. I just graduated my AFF in Sebastian, FL... What a view! It was actually easier the less I thought about it.... Am looking for a rig, can anyone advise a new grad on what to buy? stable flier, great landings... HELP? My instructors have said something @ a 170.. I am 5'9 and 175#s...
