Title: D104 to 30's Spring Mounted Mic Post by: WO4K on March 22, 2015, 11:27:55 AM Beginning the process of converting a D-104 into a retro-looking ring spring-mount to be suspended from a boom. Got the idea from one of the guys on this forum, but cannot find the thread or photo of that conversion. Can you please re-post photo?

I made a pretty good ring from a sawn piece of 6" pipe. 73DG Title: Re: D104 to 30's Spring Mounted Mic Post by: W3GMS on March 22, 2015, 03:24:16 PM Beginning the process of converting a D-104 into a retro-looking ring spring-mount to be suspended from a boom.

I thought it was Don-K4KYV who had the vintage D-104 with the spring suspension. I do remember the photo of it but then again, it may have been from someone else. 73, Joe - GMS Title: Re: D104 to 30's Spring Mounted Mic Post by: W2NBC on March 22, 2015, 03:52:41 PM Scroll down the thread for some pictures ;)
