Dave, that should work fine, I use the same vintage D-104 on my 100V 
with excellent audio reports.  This was the type of mic that was popular 
at the time the CE rigs were designed, so I'd be sure to test the mic by 
connecting it to an amplifier of some sort and making sure you hear good 
clean audio.  If your cartridge turns out to be defective, do a Google 
search for "D-104 Kobitone" to learn how you can replace it with a <$5 
mic Kobitone element from Mouser.

You have the hookup correct, as you've discovered you do need to make 
sure there is a good ground connection to the outer shell of the mic 
connector.
