I tried the new Stryker and the DigiMike (mic type set to Electret) on my barefoot Q6Pro mobile last night and both received very favorable mic checks from Bases that were 40~50miles away. Clean, clear, and more punch (modulation) than the stock mic which also is very clear. Which is a nice...
Try Installation #5, Code 1, and Alignment #4. My UFO Elite is the same as the DS-400. A little bit different than yours but I bet your 2 blocks are the same as J1 & J2 in the DS-400.
While I agree about controlling output with the input, the 503HD has a 50ohm 7dB attenuator in series on the main input and the 703 has two 50ohm attenuators for low and medium. Not that I will ever use them, I only run it on high and vary my input.
In the spirit of this thread I will post this:

Replaced the stock 18' RG8x on the Wilson 5000MM with a 1/2 wave of RG400 tuned for 27.3MHz. Very happy with the improvement. A lot less noise from the superior shield, a lot more crush proof for going through trunk/door jams, much higher power handling, and a true SWR reading of the...
Something every "10 meter" radio should have.
Especially if all of "CW" amps had a keying jack as well. No more chattering relays or missing the first couple of syllables of someone's reply due to the SSB delay.
Mounted two 30mm .06a 12vdc fans on the back of the heatsink blowing in. Feeding through a 100ohm 2watt flameproof from a switched 13.8v source. What a huge difference it makes... It will get warm but not hot. No holes drilled.
Update:
I ordered these (.73 each):

And replaced the Silver Mica with one. I was then able to get ch 1~30 down to 1.0 and 31~40 down to 1.1
Putting this here because I couldn't find it anywhere. The KL-703 has a high input impedance when run on "high". Mine was showing 1.5 SWR on the low end of the band and 1.6 SWR on the high end. It is hard to read the schematic but it appears to be using a SMD 120pf to ground before the input...
Update.
There is +8v on pin 6 for RX/TX. I don't know why I couldn't measure it earlier.
I repurposed the stock Blue wire on my favorite NC power mic (RS 21-175) and ran the +8v through a 1N4001 to drop it down to 7.3v and eliminated the 7v battery.
Haven't tried wiring up a speaker mic for...
If you already have a 4 to 6pin adapter that works on the AT-6666, it should work on the AT-6666 Pro except for the PF/UP/DN buttons. They are on a different wire in the Pro.
