I'll be looking forward to the pics and I like your position on Speech "Total energy under the curve is the same either side of Zero" Well done OM. Nice Job.

His audio was so good, I inquired about which boatanchor he was using. When he told me, I was astonished. Simply put he ran his mic (I though it was a D-104 but not sure of processing in between), into the phone-patch input. There bypassing all the speech processing garbage & audio restriction devices. It sounded just as good as modified DX-100. Damn! I wish I could remember his call.

The fellow I remember was Kevin, WB4AIO of Alexandria, Virginia with his TS-440. External audio patched in to balanced modulator. Reverb also. I worked him on 7295 kHz. AM, November 23, 1990. P.S. Didn't see you at the Kimberton hamfest. Joe N3IBX, Ott, Joe W3GMS and Larry W3LW were there also. Title: TS-440 modifications for AM Post by: W2VW on July 17, 2005, 07:12:56 PM Gee.
