Watch out over in a.a.p.l-s it can be a rough and crude
neighborhood. Many of us have completely given up on
that newsgroup because it has such a poor signal-to-noise
ratio.
OTOH, that sort of micing question is regularly discussed
(and quite civilly) on news:rec.arts.movies.production.sound
Note that any discussion tends to be rather generic (and not
very useful) unless you mention specific make/model of
which microphone(s) you are talking about. The microphone
itself, not the transmitter and receiver.
