For Sale:
Vintage High Impedance Desk Microphone
This desk microphone is quite old. It has a cotton covered
cord, so that dates it to a certain extent. It sort of looks
like a smaller D-104, but brown in color. It is about 8
inches high (stand, mic, and all) with the head about 2 inches
in diameter. It does not have a PTT switch. It looks like
it would have been used when the single button mic connectors
were used (such as the DX-40, DX-60, etc.), although it
presently has an RCA phone plug with a long center pin on it.
This one shows some wear, but it is very minor, considering
its age. $50
Another High Impedance Desk Microphone:
Yaesu YD-844 Desk Microphone
This is a 50 K impedance desk microphone that really
looks sharp. It has a standard PTT switch on it, and
also a locking PTT switch. The YD-844 dynamic base
station microphone is an optional accessory made by
Yaesu. Made of a heavy cast metal it uses a dynamic
50K ohm element.

This particular mic works fine and looks very close to new.
No scratches or imperfections. $100
Other Microphones:
Yaesu MH-31 B 8 dynamic hand microphone
This is the Yaesu hand microphone that has the round
8 pin connector on it. It will go with virtually any Yaesu
rig that uses the round 8 pin connector. It has up, down,
and fst switches, and well as a tone switch, in addition
to the PTT switch.
This particular unit works 100%, and is still unused in
its original box. It even includes the new shiny, chrome
mic holder for $40.

switch on the top in addition to the PTT button.

CES 600 L, Universal DTMF microphone
This has a normal touch tone pad on the front, with
a low impedance microphone. This one has the 8 pin
modular plug (like a computer LAN) on it. This mic has
not been used, so it is in really great condition.

normal low impedance microphone. With 4 pin plug.

Yaesu MH-34 b 4 b speaker microphone
This is the one that fits the Yaesu VX-8, VX-7, VX-6,
VX-5, VX-3, VX-2, VX-1, and that series of HTs. I
think it also fits the FT-50 and FT-60, and maybe
others. It has a single 4 conductor, 3.5 mm plug on
it. This one is just like new. $30

also. $20
