I am always impressed with the creativity and varieties of solutions this group comes up.? Collectively we range from true artists and craftsmen to hackers, kludgers, and cobblers.? I proudly spend a lot of time at the bottom of that spectrum.? While I am reasonable capable of making things look good with my BITX's I seem to rip things open and apart so often to play with that I am more interested in function than form.? With that in mind I stuck my mic and a junk box push button in a prescription bottle connected to a TRRS cable.? I know several others have posted pictures of their mic set up ranging from pro quality to junk box art.?

You need to take a cigar, coat it with epoxy and a bit of fiberglass,?

Mine with a stock electret:
Made from some plumbing parts, phone extension wire, some too-big-for-anything-useful shrink tubing, and hot glue. Total cost: $0.87. Guess who has the greater building skills, Joel or me. Hint: Joel. Jack, W8TEE

I used an old Regency CB mic case, removed the old mic element, cut down a small plastic funnel to fit where the original mic element went and cut the other end of the funnel at? appoint where a Radio Shack electret mic element would just fit and hot glued the whole mess together.

Here is my mic housing, I printed it up to work with the supplied parts.? The element drops in to the hole, the button snaps into the side, the three posts have holes in them to wrap the wires for stress relief.? I've also got a back printed up, but I haven't put it on the live version yet.? This was the testbed print, I ended up moving the PTT up higher and to the other side because it didn't fall under any fingers in this spot.
