K 40 speech processor mic.

Anyone know much about this mic? The directions mention soldering in a diode and resistor inline with the red TX wire... Why is this needed?

I seened that. Im just wanting to know what the real purpose of the diode resistor combo is really for??? Mic seems to work fine without it.

I forgot and I'm working so I can't help you right at this moment. http://www.google.com/url?q=http://...gWetoA&usg=AFQjCNEuvHNSNKUnXRYYc2IGRsiWA5I31Q P.S. I have mine wired into my Galaxy 959 without the diode and resistor and it works just fine. There are different types of radios when the K40 came out and it might be for a certain setup.

Im going to experiment with the mic.. Ill see what it does on my old Robyn 510D...

Right now its wired to an old Midland 40 CH SSB mobile.. Seems to give the radio a bit of a boost in the audio department.
