Hi,
I have a Uniden Grant running as a base station, with a Leson power desk mic connected. I heard a station loud and clear just now, and I keyed the desk mike to reply. Probably only transmitted for about two seconds, long enough to say "Hello there, loud station". But now the reception volume is incredibly low. Either on the internal speaker or with an external speaker connected. You need to turn the volume pretty much flat out and then can only just make out the audio. I discovered that my young daughter had wound up the knob on the Leson desk mic to about three-quarters the way round. I usually have it on about one notch out of ten, something like that. I suspect that I've fried something inside with such a large power setting on the desk mic. Is this feasible? Have I literally overloaded the transmitter by having the desk mic power so high? And why would that cause a problem with the receiver audio output? Thanks for any ideas! Mark. |

Failing that, try a different mic. Failing that, something is wrong with the radio. -SSB |

Sideband,
You are spot on! After I sent this message, I replaced the desk mic with the original Uniden mic and all was well. So I put the desk mic back on and same problem. Then I realised the mic transmit lock-down lever was part way down, turning off the receiver, but not quite turning on the transmitter! Mark. "SideBand" wrote in message . ..

I've seen symptoms like this once before and it was a cap, so "the problem is almost always related to caps drying out". ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= East/West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |
