Hi,
my radio transmission of my DG400 becomes weaker
One of the causes could be the microphone element.

Filser only sells the entire swann neck,
does anyone know the specifications of such a microphone ?

Thanks !


It may be that the Depth of Modulation has dropped on the radio (you
don't say what model) and that the problem does not lie in the
Microphone at all.

Either way, using a Modulation Meter (must be an AM type) should confirm
that you are looking in the right area.

Also, check that the Carrier Power is as expected (RF watt meter
required). Lower than expected Carrier Power could be a clue that the
problem is in the Radio, not the Microphone.

When you pay too much, you lose a little money. That is all.

When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything. Because the
thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing you bought it to do.

The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting
a lot. It cannot be done.

If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is as well to add something for
the risk. And if you do that you will have enough to pay for something
better."
