Reproduced here with these variations: Orion 2 s/n 05C10726 f/w 2.034 CW-PTT as: KEY Internal keyer: OFF Looks like a tweak in firmware is needed to remove the potential for embarrassment. Despite th
So here I am, the owner of a brand new Orion II and much of this reflector would have me believe it is a pos and almost obsolete. Yet I bought it after spending a couple of weeks reading the reflecto
Does any of the team know the polar response of the 706 microphone? Is it cardioid (unidirectional) or omni? Pete, G4PLZ _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@con
Ron I am fascinated to find out why a better response is needed at 50Hz. A bass singing voice might go down to 65Hz but I am unaware of the communications advantage. Pete, G4PLZ _____________________
Yes, I see that from the measurement you report on your website but that isn't what your bullet point was and I still don't quite understand the need for an increase in response at 50Hz. I think you
Apologies for replying to myself but in case anybody else wants to know it would appear that a Primo EM-60 or EM-100 electret capsule is used which means that it is almost certainly omnidirectional.
I measured it using the parameters you show on your web page http://www.ronc.users.sonic.net/Frequency%20Response%20jpg.jpg which is entitled 'Orion II Frequency Response', and using the technique yo
Together with my excellent O2 I purchased an excellent Ten Tec 708A unidirectional microphone which an informal test shows as indeed being a cardioid or 'uni-directional' microphone. The Ten Tec webs
Yes adjust, switch switch, adjust, switch switch, etc etc was one of the things that was drummed into me during my BBC training in the analogue age. You spent the first part of each morning 'lining u
Hi Scott, It says uni-directional in the website text both for the 708 and 709 as well as the picture of the base. This informed my buying decision. My 'informal test' consisted of inverting the mic
They can be OK if used at very close spacing to the intended sound source; the reduced gain needed at the rig input can help reduce reflections, blower noise and unwanted vox action. This is workable
The mounting will mask high frequencies from the rear, giving it a degree of apparent directivity. The term uni-directional isn't really valid in a microphone context. A cardioid results from the sup
Brilliant! Just what I've been looking for. Thank you. 73 Pete, G4PLZ _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/lis

I think you are right on the dollar, Buck. If TT could make the firmware modular and patchable it would avoid much of the 'which version is best?' exchanges between operators with different operating
