Does anyone use this mic?

[radioman24]

I am going to be getting a vintage, Astatic d104 10-da/t-ug8 base mic, the head looks like something you would see from the 50's and or the 60's.

does anyone use these mics? also if so how well do you like them?

thanks,Dan

Not sure of the one you have, but i think they are rather common.
Likely to be the one on the right. Yes?

With the 10 DA head, it would be the one in the middle and YES people still use them. The 10 DA head is superior for SSB use.

The D-104 head -AKA 'lollipop' mic is also very popular, and far more common.
