Vintage Shure Brothers mic


jumpered the transducers today to test sound quality, the Yaesu sounded great, nice rich tone , sideband was pegging the pep meter using my quiet voice, it had been replaced at some point evident by the crappy (failed) soldering attempt and what ever this is (mini-transformer?) was patched in, tested it it without this thing in, will do test with it installed before doing anything else, I fit the transducer into an old ranger mic, will post up pics again of the finished mic
the Shure Brothers transducer was amazing, could hear my breath , super sensitive and sideband pegged pep meter with my quiet voice, has a little hum (reverb) when you key up I can live with, the cord is bad and has to replaced, using a donor cord from a cheap cobra mic once I figure out how to wire it.....IMG_20210129_182011082.jpg
 
I recently acquired this Skyline, cannot find anything online about it.Screenshot_20210226-173236_eBay.jpg
I'm also eyeballing this Shure Bros unit Screenshot_20210226-173316_eBay.jpg

I think they're pretty cool, gonna need someone to wire them up for me and see how it goes.....I like what you did.
