My old band had to wrap our singer's SM58s in foam with it's own cable (all taped up because he used to throw them on the ground/stage all of the time during shows). It was a miracle if a mic lasted a year. 73!
Our 58's would get the snot beat out of them and would often look horrible, but they kept on working for decades. But then again, I don't think anyone deliberately threw them at full speed onto the stage. 😅 But they were dropped a lot.
Buy once cry once. Shure microphones will never disappoint, no surprises, no hidden features (opps wait a minute). Even if you upgrade later you will never let go of a Shure. Most solid piece of gear you will own.
K4SWSL just released a nice activation video using the G106, and, unusually, he did both SSB and CW. He also did an intro focused on the new ham. You can give the GMRS guy the G106 but hold back the microphone to keep him from being tempted to transmit until he has his tech, when he will have 10m voice privileges, and if he becomes excited, he would have CW privileges on 4 bands. I think that it's a better choice that the receive only unit.
Always good and timely. I have been thinking of the upgrade to boom mic and foot pedal. I have been looking at the Heil mic’s but now I will add in Shure.
I have an M90ms and I use it with my dx10. You have to adjust your audio settings on the 710 or you'll sound muddy. Other than that I get excellent reports. Surf ebay and get the m1 reference mic by yaesu. That's top of the line.
Regarding the download files for flrig dmg is a Mac format only, and both of the dmg files are thus for Macs. Reading the "readme.dmg.txt" file states that the VN file is a universal build (Intel and M1/M2/etc) built on a macOS 13.2 Intel machine good for macOS 10.13 and higher The LI file is for Intel Macs running macOS 10.12 or OS X 10.7 to 10.11 (Linux is source code only, the tar.gz file)
@@hamradiotube yep I got the rtl-sdr that came with a couple antennas. I used the small dipole for sat decodes and p25 then added the magloop to get NOAA weather faxes, listening to HF and decoding packets. I still have it set up with Openwebrx for listening or comparing RX to my other radios/antenna.
Mike... for a good quality reasonably priced shortwave receiver there are a lot of Grundrigs .... the antenna isn't as critical as you are not transmitting I spent many years in the 1960s as a short wave listener on all international shortwave broadcast bands and ham bands with a 50' long wire Wayne W5WNR
It should be. I don't use Windows much but when I was using a windows laptop I had to use FLRIG for my G90 to work with WSKT-X and it was the same process.

That's like Phil's mic! I trust you know who Phil is.
Great Video Mike!!!
Those sm7’s are quite literally AMAZING. For EVERYTHING!
Love your vids man 🤘

Cool effect at the start... looks like you're teleporting!

do you have another video on how you use this?
RTL-SDR + MLA-30 magloop is fun for RX only. Gateway drug to getting that ticket.
That's a great idea!

Heil makes wonderful mics 🎤
Would it be almost the same for Windows?

I read on the internet where Shure is introducing an amplified bidet this spring.
Dude!! I'm in!
