[Elecraft] Elecraft] Behringer XM1800S Mic

[Bob McGraw]

Be sure the wiring is correct as to the XLR 3 and the Foster 8 pin 
connector.

XLR pin #1 to Foster pin #8

XLR pin #2 to Foster pin #1

XLR pin #3 to Foster pin #7

Be sure in the Config menu, FP.H source is selected and Bias is OFF.   
See page 13 in the manual.

I use a Behringer XM8500 or Shure SM-58 very successfully.   Both sound 
good but a bit different.
