[Hallicrafters] HT-32 audio status

[Bob Sullivan]

I have been reading this interesting thread but George's comment hit home. 
I agree with him completely. When using my 664 on AM with my KW-1 I was 
frequently told that my audio was "mushy." Not distorted, etc. ... just 
mushy. Switching to a D-104 solved that problem. But as George points out 
the 664 is a good looking mic - just don't use it.  HI.
