[Elecraft] MH3 mic case

[Ian Liston-Smith]

Goodness! Thanks for all the replies where you've had the same happen. It's extremely disappointing that Elecraft ended up selling an inferior product for so much money - especially if they are not going to sell spare cases. Seems this is a very common problem and not just me being clumsy.

My mic will be under warranty, but I doubt Elecraft will pay the return postage from the UK, and anyway they're likely to say it's been mishandled and not covered under warranty anyway - despite this obviously being a common problem.

Maybe someone from Elecraft could reply here as I've still not had a reply to my email to their spares department.

Thanks for the gluing suggestions and I have tried that, but on reassembly a thought: "This really shouldn't be necessary, surely they sell spare cases." But I guess not if they just buy them from China!

If this was some cheap, unbranded stuff from the Far East, fair enough, but it isn't!

Come on Elecraft...

Ian, G4JQT

Subject: [Elecraft] MH3 mic case

Does anyone know if Elecraft sell replacement cases for this expensive microphone? I've barely used mine (I'm a CW chap) and it's already fallen apart! The three plastic internal mounting pillars have snapped off. I guess it's been dropped, but only on to carpet and I'm minded to think a $70 mic should easily withstand that.

Last month I emailed Elecraft via their online parts order form, but not had an acknowledgement. Maybe they're all on summer leave?

Thanks and 73,

Ian, G4JQT
