There seems to have been a fair bit of discussion about microphones
lately, which leads me to ask: is there any consensus on a particularly
good desk mike for the Corsair II?
I've had my Corsair for three or four years, but use it mainly for
CW so I haven't bothered about microphones. However, I've recently had
occasion to crank it up on SSB a bit more often and have been testing
different microphones -- and growing more confused by the minute.
Did a test the other night between a Shure 444 and a Drake hand
mike. Everybody said the 444 was best. Then I did a test today with a
friend who knows my voice. Used three mikes: the 444, the Drake and a
TenTec 701 hand mike. The verdict was that the Drake was far superior,
the 444 came second and the Ten Tec was a distant third.
Obviously I need more choices. Any recommendations?
