[TenTec] New 703 Mic

[Richards]

What would happen if you swapped the switch out?
I think that is what I would try to do, as the problem
continues but is, now, minimized.  You can use the
current switch until we determine a quiet replacement.

Is there any reason we could not scour the planet
and find a better, quieter switch?   I would pitch in
on that project.  It might assist others, as well.

Happy days.
