I am very disapointed,in my s-3 it dropped the auido right from the factory, and it would stop. making me believe it was a coax or mike.. i didnt open it for 3 months because i wasnt ready for it... that voided the warrnty becasue you must ship your warrnty papers in 15 days i hope the company will help me out.. it has been a very bad experience so far.... if anyone would get the flawed radio it would be me man.. thanks |

Purplehaze,
You mean you still have not contacted the Magnum Radios National Repair Shop ?
It has been over 6 months now since you first posted this same question and I answered you and called Sam to let him know about your problem.
Your Original post and my reply is below.

To be 100% honest with you, after waiting over 6 months from the time you first mentioned you had a problem with it I doubt they will want to do anything about it.
From you post above: Posted on Sunday, January 23, 2005 - 12:47 am:
It makes people think you just recently got it and had a problem with it and in your post today you also forgot to mention the fact that you DID NOT PURCHASE it from Copper like you mentioned in your First Post.
Whats going on here?

Purplehaze,
Sorry but NO this is not a regular problem and you are the only person I have ever heard this from.
Your original post was over 6 months ago and when I called Sam at that time he had no reports of this happening before and I had never heard of any problems like this.
In the last 6 months since you first posted I have never heard of this problem from any of the MANY Copper forum members who had ordered one.
Magnum would have taken care of it 6 months ago for you but to be honest I have no idea if they will now or not.
When you had a problem they would have fixed it but now it is over 9 months since you got it and that will be hard to explain as to why you did not call them and send it back in to be repaired.
All I can suggest is give Chris a call and see what he says.
