[Milsurplus] T-17 and RS-38 Microphones

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

The hanger for the RS-38 family is pretty rare to come across.  I only have 
one at present and it is in service.  The "official" T-17 one is also hard 
to find.  Usually only shows up in installation kits but as the Korean War 
vintage M-29/U and M-52/U use the same hook, the kits are a little easier to 
find.  Down side is that you may have no application from the bulk of the 
kit.
