Walt, do you use phantom power also mate or a separate power supply for
the Telinga? I find it hard to get 3 disks from my charge and I use
"powerex" NiMH rechargeables?
I must say the rechargeables are longer life than say ordinary Duracell
batteries! So you get 3x74 mins (3 disks) even using Phantom power and
burning your LED? Amazing. Maybe I use my pause more than I think I do!
