[Hallicrafters] Re: Hallicrafters digest, Vol 4 #181 - 8 msgs

Sat May 31 06:17:16 EDT 2003

Several of the old turner mics work well.  Also the old standbys; D104 and
Shure 444.  Some folks used EV mics like the 664 on a stand with a switch.
Also some older "bullet shaped" Astatics.  I used a D104 with mine and was
pleased.
