    It seems my Bird 345 has shot craps, am wondering if it is worth fixin or just look for a new and better one.
    It is just 2 yr. old and seen very limited use, I am wondering if this is a common problem with this brand of this model.

    Just thinking out loud here, any ideas will be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Depends on the cost. I don’t know the price of a 345 or the equivalent, can’t be to much

    So how did it work for you? If it worked well and is what you still want might be worth while to repair it. Bird charges flat rates for repairs. It varies on units. You can find the repair cost on their web site or by calling them. They do have a pretty quick turn around time.

    It is a $300 unit, it worked well when it was working, it is my first one.
    It would be nice to have some of the new features like down imaging, etc.
    These things are getting better and cheaper as time goes on.
    They want about $90 to repair it.
    I don’t know if that covers the ‘ducer too or not.
    Thanks for the posts here.
