microphone option that you can purchase. At Oregon State we use the Phonic
Ear equipment and have had very good luck daisy-chaining their units
together. Another mic you may want to try is a PZM that you can get at
Radio Shack. <A

folks,<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face="Courier New" size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Courier New'">We'd like to enable our
students who use Telex FM ALDs to hear questions asked by students and other
classroom interactions by providing a hand-held microphone which can be aimed in
the desired direction. The mic would be plugged into the aux jack on the Telex
TDR-4AA FM receiver that receives the lecture.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face="Courier New" size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Courier New'">I tried a generic
microphone, but the level was too low. Though I could put something together
that will work, I wonder if Telex has an accessory mic. I tried to find one on
their web site, but was frustrated by the lack of clear navigation--or maybe the
info just isn't there.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face="Courier New" size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Courier New'">So--does anyone have info on
using a microphone with these older Telex FM receivers? (The built-in mics are
not directional enough and introduce too much background
noise.)<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
