In search of Palomar SL41

Just an update to this:
I just got off the phone with Eric @Palomar , and had a nice chat.

He told me the supplier that was making the SL-41 Microphone (and the Magnum 1 radio) has gone away. They have the parts too, but no one to build them at the moment... but I too am now on the waiting list (along with several others, he mentioned)

Any chance one of you guy with this microphone could draw out a schematic?
I have the schematic. Not sure how to send it.
 
Well fellas, I'm wanting a replacement mic for my anytone rigs or at least my base because I don't much care about for the stock mics. The SL41 is an electret so I believe it'll mate nicely with the anytone but problem is they're all sold out and when it had some in my possession I didn't do they wise thing to keep one.. Anyone have a good condition sl41 they'd like part with? Or know who might possibly stock one?

Someone in a FB group Im in said about 3 weeks ago he bought one from here. When you add it to the cart it says "In Stock". Might want to email or call first... https://www.avera.eu/palomar-sl41.html

Thank you for posting that up.

Are you sure that is the correct schematic?Is the any more to the circuit?

Like where does the line go above R5?
Where are the 2 jumper pins that can be shorted to boost the bass?

Thanks for taking the time to post it up!

EDIT:

Another thing, the SL-41 runs off an AAA battery, that is 1.5VDC, not 12V

I emailed Avera. They said they have them in stock now. They told me 20 Euros shipping to USA. So I think they are 67 Euros which I believe makes that just about $100USD. Its $60 at the Palomar site plus shipping and more elsewhere in the USA, all out of stock. People at Palomar told me they were having issues with the production company a long time ago. So is it worth $100 to someone? I think so. The guy who told me about it did and I will be. If anyone made these here they would make alot of money lol.
My mic of choice is the 575M6 though. If only someone would make that mic again, OMG.

You Can buy a Heil.
Lol I feel funny driving around with a studio mic, although i do have the box to use one and a mixer. I used to use it sitting still. Worked ok. Nothing to write home about as im guessing transmitter bandwidth but it did sound better as per reports. Stryker i believe is 2.5 to 2.7 transmitter bandwidth and ive read 2.9 is wide enough for a mixer to really make a difference. Not sure how well it would work on the 6666 as i used it with a 955 and i dont know its bandwidth, yet.. Also where my set up is now theres no room. The pic is from an older vehicle set up. The colored wires in back were quickly replaced with good gold plated ones, lol. I had regular staright ones that were way to long and I wanted the L type ones anyways. 58616597_10218916825494508_2965438887960248320_o.jpg 58616597_10218916825494508_2965438887960248320_o.jpg

Thanks. I had a Heil on that for a while sitting on top. It wasn't mine but I wasn't spending the money on a good one if I can't use it, and it wasn't much of a change with the 955 although it did sound great for what it was. Right now I have to use a 6666 because of space and until I figure something out as I just got the Jeep not to long ago.

Do you know / did they mention if they accept PayPal payments?
