Hi Dane, sorry for the delay. I had a bit of a memory lapse, and when I pulled the H1 out of its case after coming out of hospital I found to my horror that I couldn't remember how to drive the darn thing.
So thanks for the reminder, it was the power/lock switch I couldn't remember. But I'm also a bit forgetfully confused as to the procedure for erasing from the H1. I had thought that the procedure was to press that while the thing you want to erase is playing, and then press the record/stop button to confirm. But when I tried it just now it didn't seem to work. There's a hell of a lot I need to retrain with, and not just regarding H1. But the H1 is my focus at the moment.

Remember that the big round button on the front is your "Record/stop" toggle if you like, turn the recorder on and its in "Standby" mode, press the round button and recorder starts recording. Press the round button again and recorder stops recording and returns to "Standby". Press the round button again and the recorder starts recording to a new file, each new file is numbered in a sequence starting from 01. Now whilst in a recording you can "Mark" a particular position in a file and these markers are recognised by audio editors such as Sound Forge, Amadeus Pro and similar. To set a mark press the "Play" button on the right hand side of the recorder, from top to bottom the itmes on the right hand side are input jack, input up/down, fast forward, play, rewind and the small indented erase button, below that is the power on/off/lock slider switch.
