Just out of curiosity, I wondered if anyone could help me with this problem. I sent the message below to Sonwatcher last night, but he told me he wasn't sure. If anyone out there has any info on this, (I already have the manuals - they don't show this assembly) I would appreciate it immensely.
Hi Sonwatcher. I wanted to tell you I appreciate the posting of the Messenger 223 manual and schematic. I received one as a gift from my late father when I was a boy. I'm cleaning it up. I have a quick question you might know the answer to.
I was taking the microphone mouthpiece cover apart and the inserts came out in my hand. Before I could see how they were arranged, they had separated. There are 2 metal mesh screens, one has a fine mesh cloth-like patch, and the other screen is plain. There is a black foam ring and a reddish paper ring, too. I know the paper ring goes between the internal diaphragm and the rest of the assembly. Do you know the sequence of installation of the other three? Any help is appreciated.
