Astatic D-104
This is Astatic'spopular model D-104Microphone. This microphone model quickly earned the reputation as the 'King of theAirwaves' by the the local CB'ers during the mid 70's, due mostly to its loud and bright presence. The original model featured a removable crystalmike 'head', and a base stand with a grip to talk keybar, and asliding transmit lock ring. This mic was offered in several different versions over the years,including the original un-amplified high impedance G-stand, and the laterun-amplified UG-8 stand, as well as the pre-amplified TUG-8 stand. The UG-8 family supported relay and electronic switching 4 wire configurations. In later years, the product line expanded to include the TUP-9,which supported a dual PTT mechanism which could be activated by either a pushbar or the original grip bar. It also included 6 wire switching support. The TUP-9sported a chrome head and shaft, and a black base. A 'deluxe' version of the TUP-9 was offeredwith an all chrome base, and with an engraved eagle on the back of the head.This model was known as the 'Silver Eagle'. There was also a goldversion offered, aptly named the 'Golden Eagle'.

Because of the need forground isolation in a 6 wire switching scheme, the newer mikes were more proneto R.F. feedback (Most commonly known as 'squealing'), with someradios, and some modifications needed to be made to restore grounding to the mic body, in order to reduce or eliminate theproblem in applications where the radio did not need ground isolation (which was the great majority of cases).

Pictured on the left, is myoriginal TUG-8 model circa 1974. It's held up fairly well over the years, with theexception of some cosmetic blemishes like pitting of the stand and shaft. Sometime in the mid 70's, I added a 'birdie' to the mic (which still works!). On the right is a newer (1985) Silver Eagle. Both mics work well in theircurrent applications.
