Need a kaput D-104 mic

[John-479]

I have had a D-104 in use for many years and I got to thinking that 104 mic
has lots of room for both HC-4 and HC-5 elements along with a spdt switch.
I might even build the preamp that was just mentioned in another thread. I
don't want to alter my good working mic so I am looking for one that doesn't
work.  Does anyone have one that they would like to part with?  I don't
really need the base, just the mic.

Hi John - I don't have an extra but I am doing exactly what you describe -
have both cartridges in the same D-104 head with a mini toggle switch
mounted in the rounded side of the head down near the plug assembly.  A
simple flick of my finger to switch from one to the other.

I'm using that head on an amplified base to overcome the very low output of
both the HC-4 and HC-5.  But - the proverbial "but" - frankly I think that
the original D-104 xtal cartridge is much better than either - to me, it
just has more punch and better "articulation" and most of my contacts agree!
YMMV Have at it!  73  --don n4hh K2/100 #2028, etc, etc.
