Even if they are in bold crayon colours
Well I've written it down in my little book that's got some of my previous wiring notes in, going back decades, as well as my sheets of rub-off lettering which'll probably neer get used again.
At least if anyone asks in the future, I can give them the 4-pin Cybernet or Cobra wiring for the Galaxy mic' now.

In the not so distant future someone is bound to want help with so little information about them on the net.

I had a Bravo plus as well which I wish that I had kept.
Isn't the twin meter version of the Echo Master Plus badged as "classic"? As in not as good as the original.

The original is a great mic though, and the Galaxy is simply same mic rebranded.
Never, ever, ever....bloody anything ever!

Far too many radio's to list here. But I do own a legal one...

I may well sell the Galaxy echo mic' on, as I was hoping that it'd put an echo'd voice into my Melos DE1 echo to increase the effects... sort of echo doubling-up, but it doesn't and the echo from the mic' gets filtered out.

Next, I shall borrow a duck from the local lake and see if that'll echo through the Melos... ;)

Yes I think it is badged as the classic. It is very inferior to the older single meter version.

There is no such thing as a Fidelity 1000 which is too good to scrap.

Somebody just paid £120 on ebay for a tidy (but dusty) Sadelta Echo Master:


https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sadelta-Echo ... 635-2958-0

If I get 2/3rds of that for this tidier, newer Galaxy version I'd be very happy.

Just got to wait for ebay's occasional weekend offer now...

It looks like microphones are heading the same way as the radio's price wise. I remember when you could pick these up for £25.

Well at the very least, it should "attract" a few bids ;)
