Hi Keith,

I use the Heil ICM which is a mic made just for Icoms but is about the size
of the Goldline.  You could put one of these or a Goldline on a desk stand
with a gooseneck and it would probably be about the same footprint as your
444 or you could put it on a boom.  I have this arrangement and love it.  I
can swing the mic over to talk or push it out of my way to have the tabletop
clear.

Good luck in your quest and very 73.

Any one used the heil microphones (not the headsets).

I am looking for some idea of the size and construction.

I need to replace my 444 which has fallen to bits.

Thanks

Keith
