Using Ceramic / Crystal Mics on New Radios

<< < (4/4)

WD4DMZ:
This thread inspired me to look into my dusty collection of mics for a possible crystal or ceramic element. What I found that intrigued me was a Shure with a 'magnetic controlled' element #99B86. Research showed it to be a hi-Z element that is highly coveted by harmonica players.

I tried it out on the V2 today and it worked well. The report I received when comparing it to the D104 I usually use was that the Shure was clearer and had more higher freq response. Another ham made an audio file so I could hear for myself.

While it is good for use with the V2 it still lacks the full sound I am looking for.

So, back to the accumulated mics I have to see what other surprises I might find.
