My Christmas was excellent. I am thankful for everything I received.

D104M6B is what I use. I am very happy with the performance. I am using a Galaxy DX-949 and I run the mic gain at 3 o'clock and the gain on the mic itself on 2. I mainly talk SSB, these setting seem to sound the best from what I have been told.

I enjoyed the show as well. It will be interesting to see where it goes.

I was on 38 lsb earlier this afternoon and heard a guy in Italy talking to 399 Jay Jay in Columbia. I was able to hear both sides of the conversation and tried to make contact with 399 after they finished their QSO. As usual I wasn't able to make contact with him. One of these days I am going...

Morning Oatmeal I did talk to Missouri and Tennessee yesterday afternoon. Yes, I do just about all my DXing on 38lsb.

I did talk to 342 in Michigan this morning. He was the only one I was able to hear. He told me there were a couple of stations coming back to me but I never heard them.

I wish it would open up here. It has been quite since the first of the month.

That' wild. Good job!!

I totally agree. He and his brother Glenn were always a hoot. Rest in peace Mitchell...:sad::sad::sad:

Hi Robb I appreciate your suggestion and will give it a try. I don't think it has anything to do with the working environment thought, because this mic is used on a base station in a spare bedroom in my house. My radio equipment is in a rolled top desk that stays closed except when the...

Okay Guys I have another question. Have all the D104M6 mics had the switch problem or is it just the newer ones? Is there a way to look at the mic and tell if it will have the problem if not all of them have it? Thanks again for all your responses.

Thank you for the info. Sounds like it should fix the problem.

I have cleaned the switch using contact cleaner, but it starts to act up again in 2 or 3 months.

Thanks for the replies. :):)

Bump

Does anyone know where you can buy the push to talk switch for the Astatic D104M6B?

Nice and clean. Looks good.:thumbup1::thumbup1:

For the most part it is quite here in the south as far as local go. I do have to agree with some of the other post that there seems to be more people on SSB this year than there was last year. I only got back into radio in December of 2009. 38 LSB has been so crowded a few times recently that...

My Sparky tuned 949 goes all the way down to .75 watts and up to about 5 watts. :)

I would not put more than 2 watts of dead key into a RM-203. These amps will not last long with a 4 watt input.
