Actually unusal have you got a mic sock on it already?

If not if you steal one off a DC they fit and should help.

I think the resistor is inside the cans near where the mic input lead is.

Cheers MJ, yup, got a sock on it already.

Tis fine in the Tri Pacer and the Cassutt below about 140mph but in the cruise at 160-180 its pretty noisy and up above 200 I'm virtually shouting....its actually overpowering my squelch in the cruise so the Mic deffo needs adjusted, will have a look at my cans at lunchtime....

Regards

UA

Would err'm get some more proffessional advice than a fat jock thinking there is a resistor you can fiddle with before taking them to pieces.

Or you could try sticking a latex band round the mic under the sock.

The online stuff i am reading says there is a mic gain adjustment

now if only I could get the comedy genius that is Perth Radio to stop asking how many persons on board I'd be sorted....
Anybody who flys a Cassutt and a Tri-Pacer must be schizophrenic and I wonder if you sometimes fly together.

D.O.

Lol, very good D.O.!! Not lost your comedy genius!

I did like the time when you gave me the airfield details over the RT and asked if I would be filing an Olympic Flight plan in G-BOMB.......reckon that would have made a few people very nervous!

MJ- Found it!, there is a small hole in the Mic itself with a pot just begging for me to jam a screwdriver into....will experiment later in the week when I have some time...
