I am done testing the 201 now and the mic was turned back to the owner.

From talking with several people today in Calif, including Robb here from the forum, here is how it sounded.

All testing was done on SSB with 2970dx

The majority have voted for the mic to be set in the FM mode for talking on SSB. When the mic was set in SSB mode the audio was not as good as FM setting.

It was also tested in the Low/High compression setting and it was a no go for these settings. No one like the way it sounded and besides that, there was a drop of about 25-30 watts when in this setting on the mic.

Although the audio was decent, it did lack the "punch" that the 575 or Tuner +3 gave. The +3 actually had more drive in putting out the watts.

The owner of the mic also listened to it and has decided to return it for a refund. This mic may work on many other radio's, but on the 2970dx, like the owner has, it's not what he wants. He has listen to my +3 on the same radio and liked it much better than the 201.

End.
