[Hallicrafters] HT32 Mike Plug

[David C. Hallam]

Roy,

I don't remember where the last place was that I got a price for the 80-MC2M
plug, but it was approximately $15.  $5 from RFC is not a bad price.
However, my Allied Electronics catalog lists them for $0.79.  Of course,
that was 1968.

RF Connection is at:

where under Connectors .. microphone you will find:
"MP2HK 80-MC2M 2 pin (m) plug (Heathkit)"  $5.00

I think $5 is not going to create sticker shock. (If you want sticker
shock, get a quote for the special order UG-970 adapter for the R-390
receiver antenna connection.)

Happy microphone connecting.
