I for one like to just leave things alone. One of the things I try and do when I bring a old dog back to life I try and remove all the thing folks did over the years to "make it better". Sometimes things just can't be undone or I figure it is not worth the time and effort. If you find the right mic and adjust the rig as it should it will sound fine. Good clean intelligible audio. Then there are folks like the guy in the TV add talking about his tube amp, "It will reproduce sounds only a dog can hear". You can get carried away. And I am not saying I have NEVER modified a rig. 30 years from now some guy will look at one of them and say, "Why would anyone do something like that to a nice old vintage rice box like that. But I did draw the line at putting extra holes in it.
I have had better luck with a D104 than any of the other dozen or so mics I have tried on the older rigs. It seem to like my voice better. Every one of the mics I have has its own "sound". Good luck and have fun. Ted WB0TDV On Fri, Jul 2, 2010 at 12:32 PM, RICHARD GEORGE <k6...@msn.com> wrote: > I have my DX 60 now working properly in a stock condition.
