Oh well , the guy I got it from (on Ebay) said he had more and that I could 
return this one.  But I bet they are all the same in how they were 
decommissioned.  All he had left were A3 units anyway and I dont have any 
HHCH mics.  So I guess I have a $34.97 + shipping door stop.  Like they say, 
Caveat Empter, or something like that.  Thanks to all for the info. Jeff
