I have had the same issue with Ranger built stuff. I did end up sending it down the road.

I tried tuning in yesterday a few times here in AZ and got nothing over the average noise floor there.

I have one of those that was given to me with a stuck meter. Neat little radio.

I pm’d Yeshua just before last new year about some microphone stuff. He replied in January, but last I had seen he had not been back since then.

I have a handful of them. I do not use them as much as I used to due to the fact that at times I believe that the old Minuteman II D104-M6 is a far superior microphone as far as being much easier to work on and get switches for, though I have yet to ever need to replace one. Also, the PTT bar is...

I will be out there that Sunday.

I know its still not the same, but I use every original part possible.

I transplant the crystal packet from Philmore LM101S microphones into the dead MC320’s (The LM101 is Still produced) There are two locals that run elements that I rebuilt and none of us can tell any difference between those two and good MC320 elements. I also convert them to Ceramic (MC321) as well.

I rebuild original D-104 elements also. It is good fun and keeps the old classics going.

I would likely stay with what is in there, unless 150uf would work.

Send me your original element. I will send you a good one I have before you were to go the condenser mic route. Just saying, the condensers have their place, but the mojo is not even the same….

I have had them with weak output or next to no output before. I have found that when the elements have been exposed to whatever extremes they have seen it usually makes the diaphragm much easier to remove without destroying it. Often I find the contacts that hold the ceramic bar in place have...

Good to hear! I was unsure if they were volume or channel. Private message me if you are able.

What state are you in?

Never had buttons, so I was doubting it was what you were after. Likely not hard to install them though. On second look, the nameplate on the front is up and down switches. Seem they may or may not be volume up and down. May not be too hard to swap them over to channel switches.

Mic gain should be a 5k potentiometer.
