COOL to look at! I talk to a guy outside of Detroit from time to
time that runs an elctro-voice 640 iirc straight to a kenwood 430,
and his audio cuts right though the pile everytime. He gets tired of
the compliments with it. I dunno but I been told elctro voice is
mighty bold! hehe

Steveo:

Look at E-Bay for those mic's I seen all kinds of Electro Voice Mics
there. Or just look around, you will run one down.

Jay in the Great Mojave Desert, ....just down the road ah ways from
the fillin station.

Hey btw I got that 520SE working, we had to replace the band-switch..I
hear that was a common problem on those rigs so no surprise. That radio
is set for a high impedance vintage studio boom mounted mic of some
sort, with those tube finals.

Tube finals into a tube amp usually makes for fairly good audio, right?

Hello Steveo:

Worked on putting up a Tower and antenna today out by Victorvile Ca,
there a bunch of guys there, got sun burned and all. But the antenna is
up and humming.

Yeah that high impedance mic should work well with the that older hi Zo
input. Worth a try Id say.

I was ah thinkin about making a custom made mic head that would fit on
the D-104 Mic stands, UG8 or 9 or something like that. Something that is
large with ribs or fins, like a 59 Cadalack, something out of the 1950's
looking type ah thing. Have bright LED's lights and be able to switch to
a few different mic cartridges for different sounds.

Yeah Jay that would be slick, I like the look of those vintage desk mics.
