[Milsurplus] TBX mic

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

That's the one.  But I don't know about any aircraft usage.

Incidentally, a couple of my customers who insisted on a full set of T-30 
Throat Microphones because that's what the TM called for grudgingly also accepted 
a set of T-45 Lip Microphones for use in a Stuart.  They ran some comparative 
tests using the Interphone system (so propagation wasn't an issue) and 
reported that the T-45's worked well and everyone who spoke was easy to understand.  
What they had to say about the T-30's I think I won't repeat here.
