just checked rca, but the same as with phones, no signal while spdif recording.
when charging with unit off, battery symbol constantly "fills" until full, then stays.
power indicator w external usb power shows letters "CHG", else just the battery symbol.
that's bad -you know ,that's really bad
i can live with bad battery life but i cant live without knowing if i have some trouble with the signal .
what about the ph power , does it exist on line input as well or its disappear when you go from mike?
can you check if you still have 5v bias when you on line setting on the 1/8 input?
thanks
