Some of the Tamiami ARC guys are coming to operate SSB in the IOTA contest
next weekend so I went hunting for mikes in the storage closet. I hate to
admit that after all this time, I finally found and unpacked both the Yaesu
MD-1 and the Heil headset I bought a few years ago. Both are new and still
in the original packing.
My question: I have to use almost full audio gain on the FT-1000D to get
even minimal audio with the Heil. Is this normal with the Heil? Or have I
stored them too long?
My favorite Radio Shack PRO-95 titanium headset gives me plenty of audio
with about 1/3 gain. (Incidentally, RS has the PRO-95 on closeout for $20
and they are grrreat headsets.)
Now for the Yaesu MD-1 microphone. I have to get right on the mike within
perhaps 3 inches to get the VOX to operate. Is this normal?
Dumb questions, I know, but in the times I've been on SSB I've just used the
hand mike that came with the rig.
