In reply to Noel. The C stood for Ceramic and that had a Ceramic element vs the stock crystal element. The ceramic had smoother response but less output. The Ceramic is kinda rare. A very high end CB radio, the ARF-2001 came with a custom Mic with that Ceramic head and a special amplifier in the base of the stand.

I have a DN-50 mic and just think it’s one of the nicest microphones going. My element is starting to go and I need help in locating one as a replacement, or suggestions on how to revive the incredible sexy Mic.
Thank you for your time’

Does anyone know about where to find parts or where to rebuild or refurbish an old Astatic Silver Eagle microphone?

Thanks,

In reply to Noel. C = Ceramic as opposed to D104 with no letter, which signifies Crystal. The output of the ceramic is just a little less (3 db) than the crystal; see page 8 of the complete catalog. De W1HQV
