Because I often have the radio on while I'm doing other things around 
the shack. And also because I operate CW casually, and because I work 
various digital modes that don't require me to hear real well. For 
example, I need the listen to RTTY and PSK31 well enough to tune it in, 
but not well enough to copy it.

That's why I asked Jeff WHY he wanted to use two different mics. As a 
retired sound system design consultant, part of my job was getting folks 
to articulate their goals and needs, not in terms of equipment they 
thought they needed, but it terms of what they want to accomplish. From 
there, it was my job to match solutions to their needs.

So Jeff, I wasn't taking offense, but simply clarifying your goals.

73, Jim K9YC
