Sparda Posted April 10, 2007 Report Share Posted April 10, 2007 A lot of MDCF members have bought 35ELKs from eBay and they all worked. Perhaps get a friend with a credit card? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So dont be dissappointed by the remote. none of them will give you Korean characters if the MD unit itself does'nt have that ability.

Please note I have given further details on getting Japanese on the RM-MC40ELK in the reply to the PM you sent me earlier. Also note that the RM-MC40ELK will not display Korean characters (only Japanese / some Chinese), the only remote that can do this is the RM-MC55ELK.

The rc level controls , the scrolling , everything about the 40 is better than the 55The 55 is designed for CD players not the MD , it will function with the MD but the 40 is Designed for that.http://forums.minidisc.org/index.php?s=&am...ost&p=83686Dont feel bad about the 40 , that would be uneeded buyers remorse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
