I have a pair of Sony studio phones that are very sensitive. Using them I get a lot of hiss off rigs because I have to reduce their output and thus their S/N ratio.
My solution was to get an in-line volume control from Radio Shack. It is a little pigtail with a volume control. Put it between the headphones and the rig. Turn the in-line control down and the rig back up. - Keith N1AS - - K2 5411.ssb.100 - -----Original Message----- From: Trail Fox Recently obtained a new headphone, the Kenwood HS-5. ...

KAP cooling fan came on, ... nasty whine in the headfones ... _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
