Default Anyone ever experienced the Heil PR-20?

Looking at this mic. Am hoping to get some feedback here. Thanks for
any info. you may have.


This is a re-branded Heil Gold Line PRO from a couple of years ago,
and I have one of those. They are nice mics with a good sound to them
but no deep lows. They are single-element, without a PTT button on
them and withg an XLR connector on the back. They're intended
primarily for studio use, I would venture to say.

I've had no trouble whatsoever with it in the 2 1/2 years I've owned
it. If I had it to do over again, though, I think I'd have gone with
the straight Gold Line and not the pro becuase my operating style is
95% DXing/contesting and only 5% ragchewing...and this is *definitely*
not a DXer's mic. I use it in conjunction with a W2IHY box now feeding
a Mark V.
