Technical Tips from Mark W. Persons

Standards...Standards...How would we get along without them?
FM Composite Audio: 
For older Harris FM exciters such as the MS-15, the MX-15, and THE-1, 2.828 Volts Peak to Peak/1.0 Volts RMS will result in 100% modulation.
For Moseley STL systems, Broadcast Electronics FM Exciters, Bext, and newer Harris FM exciters, 3.5 Volts Peak to Peak/1.237 Volts RMS will give 100% modulation.
Audio Wire Color Coding on 2-pair shielded cable:
Green = left +
White = left -
Red = right +
Black = right -
XLR-3 (A3M or A3F) Connector Audio: 
Pin 1 = Shield
Pin 2 = Audio +
Pin 3 = Audio -
 

The stories go on and on.  Stop in again sometime.  I'll leave the soldering iron on for you.
