Sure, but assuming the balanced input of the Flex/mic/cable combo
doesn't have formal a pin one problem to start with, then shouldn't it
be more resistant to common-mode RF than the unbalanced front-panel
connector? I'm just looking to locate where the RF is entering the system.
And I apologize for the post-over/post-under inconsistencies. I fell
asleep during the televised debate and so don't know who to vote for... ;-)
Thanks,
