Default Bits and Pieces

I'm also starting to sweat that the dodgy valve mic I returned a few
days ago could turn into a 'Ooh, it didn't arrive could you claim the
insurance from the Post Office?' scam!!

We'll see....



I should add: What's irritating me is that my instincts were to keep
that mic* and have a fiddle with it to see if I could have made summat
of it. It would have been a good *hands on* learning opportunity (the
way I like it) and it wasn't a whole lot of money for a fair amount of
quite good-looking, *possibly fixable* kit, even if it had needed the
innards radically changed!

(Too late now, but I reckon a check for dry joints in the PS and to swap
the valve in the mic might have put me on the right road...??)


*Given that the Seller's real name didn't inspire me with confidence and
a 'the mic didn't arrive' response will *not* surprise me...
