See my earlier responses to both gentlemen. <smile> 1) Frequency response.... yep, understand and agree. One of the things I learned from one of Jim's papers as a matter of fact. Which is why I modified the mic design slightly to produce a frequency response curve more suited to amateur radio and as clean as I could possibly make it within my resources. Thanks, Jim. 2) Also why I use Jim's recommendations for TX EQ on the K3s as a starting place to NOT waste power. Thanks again, Jim!
I don't consider it EVER a "waste" when I 1) learn new stuff, and 2) have fun... which of of course my primary motivation for doing ANY of this in the first place. And the "brand name" on my microphone is "Autery" or "KY5G". <wink> Have a super Sunday!! ______________________ Clay Autery, KY5G MONTAC Enterprises (318) 518-1389 On 6/11/2017 9:39 AM, Joe Subich, W4TV wrote: > Mics of any kind - dynamic or condenser/electret - with wide frequency > response are completely wasted for amateur radio (or any communications > application).
