The ASTATIC 878 "power" microphone offers the Radio Operator modern styling and features along with the sound and "talk-power" made famous by the ASTATIC D104 for over 60 years.

     An output impedance compatible with the inputs of almost all commercial transceivers and externally adjustable high gain amplifier ensures desired modulation level. The 878 has easily accessible control for volume adjustment so that the correct modulation level can be set for each operators voice. The 878 preamplifier is powered by a readily available, easily replaced, 9 volt battery. The 878 has a six wire coil cord which allows for relay, electronic or virtually any type hookup with almost any transceiver.
