[ARC5] NDRC & Aircraft Audio above 20,000 Ft

[jeepp]

OK, just went to the AIC mic drawer and confirm the carbon element is, in fact, the M-51/UR.  The first general use dynamic (USAF) was the Roanwell M-33A/AIC. Its the black, molded assy. with a wire boom.  This was replaced by the Roanwell M-87/AIC.  In the drawer are some little, round M-10/AIC elements with the 2 part wire boom.  These went with the Army vehicle/armor headsets, I think.....Jeep K3HVG

The T-45 lip mic works.  The T-30 throat mic doesn't.

Then there’s the “Mustache Mic” that hung from your ears with a



couple of loops,  ran across your face above your upper lip



 with the element under your nose, looking like a  “Hitler” mustache. 



 I read that the things were treated with some kind of 



jungle fungus stuff that stank unbearably and, if worn in



 a hot environment, sweat leached-out the chemical



and caused a nasty, itchy rash from ear-to-ear.



Sometimes, ya can’t win for losing…
