D104's anyone???

Let's all have a moment of silence for all the chickens that were choked.

<pause>

Okay, carry on.

Now, that's funny! I never could figure out why the old D-104 grip-to-talk stands were called "chicken chokers" back in the day. I guess it's an old-timer thing.
 
(Sorry for being late to the party, I know this thread's a little old. :) )

If those mics were kept in a storage locker, there's a good chance the D104s are all ruined. The D104 crystal elements are vulnerable to extreme heat and humidity; prolonged exposure can damage them. And I doubt the storage unit they were kept in was climate-controlled. Shame. :(

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
