New Ham Shack Part 4, Audio Mixer Installation by K7AGE

In this video I show you how I setup an audio mixer for my ham radio station. I am using this mixer to monitor the audio outputs from my Elecraft K3, Kenwood TS-2000 and Uniden Home Patrol scanner. The output of the mixer feeds into a pair of JBL Control 2P powered speakers.

I cover balanced and unbalance wiring, a bit of soldering connectors and installation of the mixer.

I am not using the mixer for a station microphone to feed into a HF transmitter.
