Hi,

I was wondering what mobile mic you guys would reccomend for the RCI-2970? I will be using it mostly on sideband talking skip. In the old days I would have bought a D104 sight unseen, however, I have been out of the hobby for about 20 years. I'm also wondering if my Old Turner Super Sidekick can be wired for this rig for the base side. If so - I can I mail the mic to opper to have it wired? I suck at sodering....

Mike

My number #1 choice for a hand mic for the Ranger/RCI 2970 would be the DM 452 SuperStar Power Mic

I feel the perfect match is the Astatic 575-m6 hand mic.I have run RCI-2970's for over 30 years.D-104-m6 work ok.

I'm in a similar position guys. Would like a desk mic for my 2970DX. I have the worst voice on the planet...a lot of you have heard it on voice chat. So what would you lot suggest to compliment the big girl and my horrid tones?

OOPS forgot to give you the shipping price on it. Keep trying to send you e-mails at your raider e-mail and they keep coming back.

Holler at me in the Copper Voice Chat.

477,


The DM 452 SuperStar Power Mic uses a standard/single 9 Volt battery.
