Mike,

Please enlighten us with the settings. What power level do you run on the OMNI VII? How about EQ? When I tried it once just recording using a dummy load I thought I might need quite different EQ than I run on SSB. Sounded muggy. I don't use anything external to the OMNI VII for audio, just a microphonium and the unconventional OMNI EQ.
