The

Astaticts lirnitedproduction

Bicenten-

nial rnicrophone comrnernorating

our nationts

200th

birth-

day, will

be-the

rnost

treasured

rnicrophone in the

history

of our

country.

The

world farnous Astatic D-104

rnicrophone,

ernblazcined

withthe

"Golden

Eaglerr,

is rnounted

on

a new Astatic 6 wire

transistorized

desk stand

for

universal

hook-up applications.

Both

rnicrophone

and

de

sk stand are beautifully

plated

in

2

0K

gold

to

add the final touch

of

elegance.

Ttre

Golden

Eagle

(T-UG9-DI04,

Gold)

Stand

has

a built-in

two-stage

silicon transistor

amplifier having high irnpedance

input.

The

output irnpedance is suitable for tihe

inputs of

rnost all cornrnercial

transrnitters

or

transceivers. The

high

gain

available

ensures

desired rnodulation capability.

The

gaincanbe

readily adjusted for the

desired rnodulation.

The

control is

recessed

to avoid

accidental

changes. The

result is an ideal base station

rnicrophone for

CB,

Arnateur

or other comrnunication transceiver

or

transrnitter. The

tailored

response and high

gain

ensures excellent talk-power

and

intelligibility

- -

and full rnodulation.

SWITCHING

CONTROL:

Most types of

switching

are possible

by

proper hookup

wiring with

no changes in

the stand reqr.riled.

The

so thatin theunoperated

position

the black wire

is

connected

to the blue wire and

the

yellow

is grounded

to

the shield. Depressing

to

the blue

wire

and ungrounds
