[TenTec] Remote Pegasus

[Mark Erbaugh]

Bill,

Thanks for the suggestion.  However, the Pegasus does not have a line level
input. The input level on the ACCY jack is actually the same as for the Mic
input.  Would it be good to boost the mic to line level at the mic end and
then reduce it back to mic level at the Pegasus end?

73,
Mark
