[Milsurplus] Dynamic mics

[J. Forster]

Nope. I had a surplus one in the 1950s.

It had two sensors, each about 5/8" x 1 1/2" and about 5/8" thick. Each
element was covered with soft medium brown leather. There was an
elasticized strap and a beautiful dark sky blue zip cord. I think it was
RCAF. The sensors were spaced about an inch appart.

I tried hooking it up to an amp, but don't remember getting much, if
anything, out of it. I don't know whether I was lacking gain or the thing
was bust. I seem to remember taking it to pieces and it was built like an
old headphone, with a steel diaphragm, coil of fine wire, and a magnet.
