On page 4 of the TR-4 manual under the transmitter specs it says the mic is high impedance. If I remember correctly, and this is digging back about 35 years or so :-) so take it with a grain (lump?) of salt, low impedance meant 600 ohms or lower and high impedance was anything greater than 1000 ohms. Although most of the hi impedance microphones I remember were on the order of 10K - 15K ohms. Using a mismatched mic will really reduce the signal available. 73 - Mark N1VQW ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Submissions: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------
