If you can wait for the May campout we will have a selection of mics 
for you to try with this dish and you can choose what dollar range is 
good for you. They will just be there of course as we sell nothing.

I know of two homemade condensors used with dishes that I expect to 
be there. I will have a choice of three others to try. You will also 
be able to compare stereo to mono.
