one for nearly 30 years. I took the business over from my father. Well,
tonight I got a knock on my door, just as I was typing the KRRZ tip a

all close neighbors. I hope you feel better soon.

typically leave OC on AN. This can get out well and I have honestly had the

How far apart are you keeping the radio and MD apart? I found that if I
separate them by 3 feet or more, I don't have the hash problem. I record

Thanks for the information about the station

a station with such good signal could have no

Hi Brett,
The Sony ICD-SX57 has a very convenient in-line recording jack which
accepts a stereo mini-plug, and cuts out the microphone inputs completely.
You
can also monitor the signal as it is being recorded. It works perfectly for
me, with the ULR's.
I can remember having this conversation once before on this, possibly with
you Russ. My MD recorders are Sony - do you have a Sharp, by chance? I
recall there were Sharp models that didn't exhibit this hash. I use the MD
on my table radios all the time, but the diffrence is that they are attached
That's excellent Gary. They seem custom-made for use with ULRs. I will
definitely check it out further,
