Hello Bob,
Two items............. Do you still have the CBS Volumax for sale? How
much?
Do you still need tubes for the Gonset G-76? BTW, why am I thinking
the modulators and final are different. I sold my G-76 (kick my ass
for doing so) but I have extra tubes in the shack. I vaguely remember
the modulators and final as being different. Correct me accordingly.
And remind me abt the screen resistor "glitch" between schematic and
production units. Gave me hell for an hour or so.

A Comment on your E mail...The Behringer is a great little box
especially for the money. But if you want
A really great sounding D-104 go to the K7DYY site and check out his
board. Guys let me tell you I have a D104
And a 10DA with Bruces board on board and guys say that it sounds like
WBAP AM. I have a lot of high doller gear
And love what Bruce has done. Check with Brian WA5AM on how he thinks
the quality is. Bruce has a number of options
On it...I sent my mic to him and let him do his thing...His Web site is
www.k7dyy.com
All the best...

So far I've not found the crystal mic elements from Mouser, "Kobetone"
etc.,
to be really good enough to replace the D104 element, or even the
elements in
crystal mobile mics. I don't think their diaphragms are big enough.
The original D104 is prized because it has good low-end response, and a
preemphasis rise in the upper-midrange. You can use it with an
otherwise flat
transmitter and get decent results without any extra EQ gadgets.
Rather than use a sub-optimum crystal element to replace a bad D104, I'd
consider using one of the $1 consenser elements in the head and use
external EQ,
or maybe a circuit in the base of the G-stand, to get the rising
response
characteristic.
A side note: For a real bargain in a pro-quality mic look at the
Behringer
C-1 as shown at http://www.bswusa.com/proditem.asp?item=C-1
$40 is *very* cheap for such a good-sounding mic. But keep in mind its
response is essentially flat, not like a D104, and it needs
phantom-power.
