Ivan, I agree the tones on a 250 suck. I have also found that a pair of earphones with a volume control should be used. Digger, YOU lost the holder! Now, swallow hard and let's move on. I will also agree that $30 IS too much. Suggestion.... glue some velcro on the rough surface of the probe and add the other section to one of those nylon "neck things" (hopefully the Green Bay Packers version) and simply wear the probe around your neck. Adjust the neck thing accordingly. Up, out of the way, and never to fall out of the pocket. Just a thought.... TTCivan salis said:one thing I think everyone agrees with --the tones on the ace 250 suck --whoever the tone deaf dolt was that decided upon those exact sounds --as "the tones" for the ace 250 -- needs to be drug out back and bull whipped .--it is like a attack on the eardrums .-- those lame / sorry tones really drive some folks away from the 250 * or stop them from buying one -- seems to me that garretts R & D and marketing folks should know that by now and do something to fix it .
