I'm back --- sorry to have taken so long to get back with this, but I have been down with some sort of killer flu virus allergy infection sore-throat mess for the last several days and just couldn't summon the strength to think straight; although I am far from fully recuperated, I can sort of stagger around now.
Here are the results of my earlier test of W23 while everything was still connected:
B: no mike = 8.60 --- mike keyed = 8.59
C: no mike = 11.42 --- mike keyed = 10.64 (0.78 drop)
E: no mike = 7.96 --- mike keyed = 7.93
and here are the results after I de-soldered and lifted the legs on the driver and final:
B: no mike = 8.61 --- mike keyed = 8.60
C: no mike = 11.56 --- mike keyed = 10.76 (0.80 drop)
E: no mike = 7.99 --- mike keyed = 7.96
Just to be clear, the driver and final are those two flat-backed 3-pronged gizmos that are screw-attached to that multi-angled aluminum "fence" located in the rear corner area; one is a wee bit wider than the other and they look like smaller versions of the W23; do I have this right ?
And, if so, which one is the driver and which is the final ?
Thanks so much !
