Hi Anthony,

I think the Handi-mic from Heil would do a good job if you get the HC-5
cartridge or the wide range one.  Also, the Goldline works well.  But, the
MC-60, once the mods are made to get rid of the RFI, sounds really good with
it.

Good luck and very 73.

Hi Steve;

Is their another alternative to the MC60A?

I would like to use another mic other than the hand mic.
