W2ENY HiFi kit replacement element for Astatic D-104 All Models

Description

W2ENY HiFi MIC ELEMENT
My custom design modernizes your old Astatic D-104
Design supports the G, UG8, TUG8, TUG8, TUP9 stand for newer ham radios
I've been experimenting with MANY headsets over the last years, I had previously used a Heil headset til now.  This element far exceeds mic specs for optimum use with todays radio technology.
I designed this application for a direct solder in replacement that brings Hi-Fi audio and new life to my old amplified D-104.  I now have this available for the D-104 for the following stands:  G, UG8, T-UG8, T-UG9, T-UP9.  This is an electret mic replacement that is powered by your radio's mic connector
(please see supported radio list below)

The amp board and battery are not used in this kit

It's a 15 minute job to replace and it works great!!  Features great sound with full range audio, I've been getting nothing but excellent 'ON AIR' audio reports ("Sounds just like you, Bob!").
50 Hz - 16 kHz wide range FLAT Response - Natural Sound
Finally, a way to upgrade from that shrill, top end sound offered by similar crystal replacements!
