Oh, yes, the vaunted CBS Labs/Thomson CSF Volumax/Audimax twins! Bob Orban and Frank Foti made a career tweaking those things. My club has a TV Station Veteran Audimax (left channel unit) handling the audio from the computer on a repeater EchoLink VoIP circuit. Not too Ham Friendly, no blinking lights, just a big edge meter marked green and red smack dab in the middle... And, it makes a wonderful rack shelf for the LCD computer monitor, too!
Joe, W4TV, I now know, in retrospect, that I should have confiscated that Kahn Symetra-Peak that was being used as a doorstop at the Radio station transmitter site in San Antonio before Waterman sold the stations for a much higher calling in Ham Radio! I coudda been a contendah on 3.625 with that box! :) -lu-w4lt- Message: 25 Date: Wed, 6 Oct 2010 09:55:06 -0400 From: "George & Jan" <georgeand...@windstream.net> Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 Feature Request To: <Elecraft@mailman.qth.net> Message-ID: <0b65d1193114430ca8c66220185d5...@officedesktop> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Years ago in a land far far away we discontinued using the Semetra-Peak (sp??) on AM in favor of the then new CBS Labs audio processers ( Audimax/Volumax (sp??)) which did a much better job of increasing the average modulation with far fewer artifacts. We did retain the boom mic phase reversal switch for those jocks that insisted that they sounder louder on reverse. Eventually the switch rusted in place!

For crystal, ceramic, and dynamic mics, that can usually be accomplished by inverting the polarity at the mic element. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
