Or does the Telinga Pro5 require PIP in addition to its onboard battery?
In that case THIS would be the cause of my signal dropout, NOT the cable so=
mehow blocking the signal when no phantom power is flowing.
Klas or someone else can you speak to this?...
With the Telinga Pro5 handle...if it is plugged into a stereo mini-jack...d=
oes it require Plug-In Power somehow to create a signal? I realize of cour=
se that the microphone is powered by the battery onboard...but wonder if th=
e handle require PIP as well.
Thanks.
