Jim, we've already had this discussion. <smile> Man asked me what I was running, and I told him. I like it. It's a wonderful mic. It does the job..... well! I like nice things. Not like I'm trying to use it on a DXpedition. <wink>
I find pleasure in having, using, and BUILDING nice things. It's not about the money or doing the job.... If I wanted that, I'd still be working a J-O-B. As my Mamaw used to say, "Clay, that's why they make different flavors of ice cream." Have a great day! <big smile> 73, ______________________ Clay Autery, KY5G On 6/11/2017 1:06 AM, Jim Brown wrote: > On Sat,6/10/2017 8:02 PM, Clay Autery wrote: >> Customized large capsule condenser mic on a Heil PL2T boom using ONYX >> Blackjack for power supply/control. > > Sorry, but you guys are WAY over the edge on this.
