Used Night Eagle D-104

[robturpin]

How does the Night Eagle rate within the D-104 family of microphones?

If I buy a used one, what all can be wrong with it (how expensive to fix)?

Thanks!

usually what i've seen go wrong is the plastic rod running down the neck of the microphone used for the side bar sometimes bends over time and makes the mic cut out when you key it up, or sometimes wont key at all. Other issues are the contacts get dirty and make it sound scratchy when keying/unkeying. Thats usually about it, unless someone else has had some bad experiences with them....but dont get me wrong they are an excellent mic if you find a good one!
