Mike,

I'm writing this without reading about 4 or 5 MD digests, so the answer to
your problem may have been resolved by now.  I know that is a mortal sin
in listserve communities, but heck I just blew off about 5 digests that
had nothing to do with MD so I'll probably end up in purgatory instead of
hell. 

Ok, I've used the 702 and Core Sound Mics for many concerts over the last
2 years.  Have had nothing but great results with the setup. 

For louder jazz concerts (~90-110db) I use the mic input on the 702 and
have the level set around 9 out of a possible 30. 

For softer jazz concerts, I'll be in the 12-15 range.   For very small
classical string ensembles I'm usually set at 15-20.  Any only once did I
have to get into the 20-25 range and that was a solo piano and solo violin
recital I attended. 

As Martin had suggested, check the power of your battery.  That is the
most likely cause of the low volume.  As far as clicks or pops in the
recording, I've not noticed anything in mine.  

The Sharp 702 that I have has a known artifact that when your changing the
recording level from above '18' down to or below '18', the machine will
drop out of recording for about 1/10 of a second.  You get a very nice
blank space in the recording.  :(   That has been documented before.  I'm
just very careful when I have to record softer events. 

Hope this helps,

Jerry
