[TenTec] Mics for Pegasus NEWBE HERE HELLO ALL

[James C. Owen, III]

Hi Derwin,
   I have a Jupiter and since it's very close to a Pegasus the mike used should work the same on both. I  use an unamplified D-104 and it works fine and I get excellent reports. The guys that know me say it sounds natural. In fact I have used this same D-104 on every rig I've owned for the last 50 years and always gotten excellent reports. There is only one TT rig I've found that it doesn't work with and I forget if it's the Scout or the Argonaut V. The rig's input impedance is too low and I get very low output. However the amplified one works fine.
