Ladies and Gents

I have been lurking for a long time, but I have some advice in this regard 
so I'll come out of the dark..  I have tried Samson, AKG, new Nady's and 
none of them were as good (transparent) for running an old hi-z microphone 
through as my old Nady 201 (guitar system).  You can plug the 1/4" right 
into your mic.  The transmitter input has enough headroom to tolerate the 
output of crystal and dynamic microphones.  I ended up buying another one 
off eBay for $45 and it works like brand new.  With some soldering 
expertise, you can cut the cord from the transmitter, leave 2 - 3" and put a 
female jack on it; then you keep the transmitter on your belt and when you 
need to put the mic down, you just unplug the mic.  The annoying "bubble" 
power switch that WILL FAIL can easily be replaced by a push putton switch. 
There's plenty of room in the case.

One guy around Syracuse asked me to set one up for him.

Good Luck

Bernie Clarke
