Steve,
I'm using the D104 (no amp) here with my Drake T-4XC and T-4XB.
Get really good audio reports indicating good mid and high range
punch...with a little bass thrown in.
Hope that helps.
73,
Lee

I'll endorse that - sometimes a microphone just doesn't work with a rig
- for whatever reason.
If, however, you are sounding better on 80 and 40 than on 20 through 10
(or vice versa), check your carrier balance alignment and lastly your
sideband filters.

Peter,
Does it happen in both sidebands? If so, I would try a different mic
first. See if you can borrow as opposed to buy a different mic.
I never had good audio reports (distorted, tinny, etc) on my B twins or
the TR7 until I found the right mic for my voice. I must have bought,
tried and sold 20 or so different mics. BTW my final mic cost me about
$5. I built it out of PVC pipe and an electret mic recovered from an
old trimline phone. Cheapest and best mic I've ever owned.

After more than forty years I have finally got what I was dreaming of
when I was young: a Drake R4B with a Drake T4XB. The receive audio is
second to none, but the tx audio is repeatedly reported to be flat,
sharp or tinny. I am using a Turner +3B microphone with the gain
control at 2 o'clock.
All comments appreciated.
