[TenTec] Audio Issues with Heil Microphone and Jupiter

[James C. Owen, III]

Hi Dave,
   Heil's are not known for having high output. With my 
headphone/mic I had to build a pre-amp to use with the Corsair
II. However it works fine with the Jupiter though I have to run
mike gain about 90% where as with the D104 I normally use it is
run between 40 & 50%. Just a difference in mic output. There is a
course adjustment to set the mic gain in the Jupiter so you could
adjust this to reach a comprise between the two mic's. Say set
the course gain such that with the Heil you would set the gain to
90% and with the T-T gain might be 20%.
