Comica Boom mic fault - clever repair

The Comica BoomX-D radio mic which we use when shooting port videos and ship tours for Doris Visits, has an annoying fault. It is a weakness, and we show you how to repair it easily and cheaply with no cost thanks to an ex-BBC engineer.

We now use a Comica BoomX-D wireless microphone when filming Doris Visits.
The shell design leaves a gap the plug can push back into. Taivo fills the gap, and it works.
Then the Comica is demonstrated in action again, as it was at the front, but this time in Split.

All films since about 2021 have been shot with this microphone. Previous films used a Sennheiser system.
