Thanks for doing the tests.
I own three different generations of mkh-110's. They possess
different caps and different transistors.  The mic is so old that I
suspect no one who wrote the specs checked out the upper freq limit.
I suspect but don't really know that the mkh-110 will outperform the
mkh-20 because it is so primative and without filters or balanced
output.

I am glad you know are the proud owner of a 100,000 cycle capable mic
you didn't own yesterday and paid nothing new for.

Also thanks Steve. Your info tells me that I likely gave MPR wrong
info when they played the bat on public radio.  I indicated it was a
Little Brown Bat. I don't think I will bother with a change to it
being a little Big Brown Bat.
