Re: [Flexradio] Kenwood Microphone

Tom, I would think that the MC-60 would work well in the 500 Ohm setting.  You should be able to use it easily by plugging it directly into the D44.  You can also run it through the front panel of the SDR-1000 if you want to pick up PTT on the same cable. 73, Gerald -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Tom Ski Sent: Sunday, September 04, 2005 3:32 PM To: FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz Subject: [Flexradio] Kenwood Microphone I have been operating CW with the SDR for some time and am pleased with the CW performance of this rig. I am now ready to try some phone to keep a sked with a fiend moving south on a sailboat. I have a Kenwood MC-60 microphone which I found at a swap and wish to  use it with the SDR. This microphone is a dynamic mic w/ PPT. the mic impediance may be set for 50K ohms or 500 ohms. The frequency response is 150 Hz to 10Hz. This mic has a built in pre-amp. Has anyone used this mic with the SDR and can it be connected directly to the D44 break-out box without the use of a pre-amp or second sound card? Advice and suggestions appreciated.   73’s Tom AA8YI
