I am often amazedĀ  how little some hams know about microphones. You can purchase any number of compatible dynamic microphone cartridges, or electret condenser capsules, and fit them into a D-104 head shell.

JR:

Do any of the mics you mentioned have frequency response curves similar to high articulation mics like the original Astatic D-104? or the vintage Heil HC-4/5 (see graph below).

I found that most "generic" mics have way too much low-end response with little top-end so they sound very muddy and not very articulate. Not the best choice for entry level and older rigs that do not offer TX-EQ.
