I've run a 444 on my old 101EE and it sounded alright, a little soft on the top end, but the best sounding mike I ever heard on mine and several others was the Turner Plus 2 desk mic with a small capacitor in series with the mic's + lead of around .1-.01ufd to tame the extra bass back to just right.

I was told the mic made it sound like a 756 ProII with a top line Heil element. Their words, not mine. Turner plus 2s are everywhere, give one a try, just make sure it has a good original element in good condition.

It has a real friendly lock switch, too.

Ditto,, I have used a shure 444 with several ft-101's and they are a great combination.
