Sorry I wasn't a bit more specific with the RST link.
If you go to the rst-eng site and then click on the Articles link,
there is a .pdf file titled $10 Headset or something like it. That
article shows the little inpedence changer in a photo canister that
Gary was talking about.
It is worth checking out the other articles and the rest of the site.
There are lots of greats things that Jim has done.
Merry Christmas
Kirk

Corky,
Now you tell me!!! That might explain why I have spent more time lately
tearing things apart than moving forward.
Just kidding. You are so right. If you want to make a slight change it is
amazing how many other things it affects.

Since we are on the the subject of mikes I would like to ask if anyone has
any experience with mikes in open cockpits.
I have been flying with the David Clark dynamic mike and it is the best I
have found so far. But, it is not as good at eliminating background noise
as I would hope for.
I am planning on buying a new one when I finish the Piet this spring (hope,
hope) and am looking for recommendations.
Thanks,
Ted

Mr Ted,
I will admit to a slight change in my crank. I raised it, I don't remember
how much, in an attempt to eliminate the cable drag on the horiz stab while
the a/c is at rest. It worked. I think I mentioned on this list that if I had
it to do over I would consider a torque tube from the column to the crank to
reduce the friction of cables and pulleys.

Having served in the Marine Corps for six years, I agree with this
statement. I was assigned to an air support section in charge of generators
that kept a surface to air missile site online. I was in charge of the
generator section in particular, and we always used a ground strap
attachment before filling any piece of equipment. It was diesel, and not
likely to to ignite from a static discharge, but used for safety none the
less. My two cents.....

This isn't mikes but you reminded me of
it so I'm throwing it in as it's related and
maybe someone knows more details
about it.
Lastyear at Arlington I caught a discussion
between a couple of guys at the food tables.
Apparently there's a source for under helmet
earphones that are molded in by either making
a mold of the inside of your ear or just pouring
in the casting material. The phones are molded
into the material. Their main business is hearing
aids but this one guy got them to use AC units
instead. This is very expensive from what I
could gather. I'm sure there are many of these
hearing aid places around the country. The guys
up and left while still dicussing it so that's all I
heard.
