Re: OSCAR 1.4.0 Released - June 17, 2022

Wonder if we can get a version supporting Arch Linux. I see every other kind of versions supporting different operating systems. But not Arch Linux. This version is what I use on several machines. You may have already solved this but I'm running the latest Oscar (1.5 at this writing) on Arch Linux....

Re: AirSense 11 doesn't record to SD card once in a while

There was actually NO data on the SD card for the dates in question. The card was not locked. Actually something DID get written to the card: the directory entry for the day(s) on which the data was missing. The machine was definitely on! I used it all night on those nights, and the very high level ...

AirSense 11 doesn't record to SD card once in a while

I've been using the Resmed Airsense 11 (auto) for a little over two weeks now. On two separate occasions, there was no detailed data on the SD card; Oscar told me "nothing there." All other days are fine. I thought perhaps the SD card was not properly inserted, but examining the SD card data structu...

Re: Pressured by doctor to buy local

USPS Priority Flat Rate boxes are the best deal. You'll have to pay extra for tracking and delivery confirmation. Still MUCH cheaper than FedEx and UPS. And it turns out that for this very reason, Hawaii is the largest user of the flat-rate priority USPS service in the nation. But some vendors just...

Re: Pressured by doctor to buy local

Thanks to everyone for the great advice. I'll be verifying everything with my insurance and studying the market for a while before jumping in. I'll also definitely be requiring the doctor to give me a copy of the prescription and study results. As to shipping to Hawaii, that can be a problem for sur...

Pressured by doctor to buy local

Please excuse if this topic has been discussed frequently--- a search didn't find it, though. I live in Honolulu. The doctor who prescribed the CPAP for me pushed very hard to get me to buy local. He "quoted" (not very well) problems patients who bought from the internet have had. In the end, he did...
