[TenTec] Pegasus mike input is Hi-Z, unbalanced!

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,
