Scanner to console

Post by FMROB »

Hello all,

Hppy Holidays.

What is everyone using these days to feed scanner audio into a console, in other words any handy devices for coverting scanner to 600 ohm line audio.

Thanks, Rob

A Radio Shack 1:1 transformer and an L pad should do the trick.

Bill,

Will a Bogen Input/output matching transformer work for this application? Model WMT-1A.

That should work just fine, but give you a very limited range of input level control.
