I've been attempting to run my broadcast audio chain into my Pegasus 
with limited success.  I'd been informed, variously, that the mike input 
to the Ten Tec rig was low impedance - balanced (which is what I need), 
high impedance unbalanced, low impedance unbalanced and high impedance 
balanced :-).  The manual I have is devoid of information and I have no 
schematic.

So, I called Gary, N4CJX, at Ten Tec -- the "Peg tech".  He says the 
mike input is high impedance (about 10K) unbalanced -- which is the 
usual amateur practice (strangely).  He's also sending me a schematic 
(yippee!). 

Anyway, armed with that knowledge, I'll employ a matching transformer 
and pad and all should be well -- unless I run into more RF incursions.

I just thought I'd pass along the information in case anyone else is 
curious.

Many thanks and 73,

Craig
