[ICOM] PR 780 Microphone

[Bill NY9H]

Nahhh,,,

Bob can do the math,,,,  if you will spend 10 k on a radio ....
you'll be happy with 400$ for the mic,,,
let's do the math ....a  $ .50 electret ,,,plus a $1.25 dynamic element, 
and an expensive enclosure,,,and the 'classic' stand.
.
Bob should have had his vendors provide a big yoke like the Yaesu has... it 
would look cooler,,,,,
