I've been trawling the internet trying to figure this out without success, so back as always to the source of all knowledge, AULRO. Further to my questioning about my HF radio, I've been trying to source a replacement microphone element for the Jenal SC-2 mic. Advice in other posts was to get one from Jaycar, however Jaycar do not stock an element that looks anything like this one. The element in the Jenal mic is a cylinder 19mm in diameter and 19mm long. All the elements that jaycar stock, and all the elements that I've been able to find in online catalogues from other suppliers, are miniature elements ranging from around 4mm to 10mm or thereabouts.
Can anyone point me to a source where I might be able to get the correct element, or perhaps advise whether a different size element would work if I make adaptations with the mounting.
My 2 Codan mikes work fine with voice transmission, the Jenal works fine with selcall tones but no voice output. Changing the element seems a simple and inexpensive enough next step in troubleshooting, but finding an element has brought me to a stop.
