Similar story about Mike. He was doing an outside broadcast and mentioned in the course of an interview that he was recording on something the size of a packet of fags whereas before he would have needed something the size of a suitcase. I emailed him to ask him what he was using, he not only told me, he told me where I could get one from. Then a week mor so later, he pointed me towards one that we being sold on ebay - he also gave me some really good advice on which mic to use etc.

What a guy - brilliant!
