Feind Hört Mit mikrofon

[Danmark]

A recent project of mine has been this field radio microphone. Bought locally with the plug missing, it has sat in a box for a while until I could find a serviceable two prong plug – which I did on ebay.de a few months ago. A careful dismantle, clean up and a couple of solder repairs and this unit is back together again ( and would be workable if I had a radio to test it on )

With the ‘FIEND HORT MIT’ warning emblazoned across the top it is an iconic piece of TR kit and a nice addition to the collection.

Shhh … the enemy listens in!!!

Well done! I've always liked these microphones! A neat item!

Thanks Glenn!

This data plate came with the plug purchase.
Kinda neat but I don't know what it came off ....... any ideas fellas???

Thanks, Dan

The plate is off a Zünderbatteriekasten, it provided the electricity to bomb detonators before they where released from an aeroplane.

So luftwaffe then..... h'mm maybe the seller just combined them or maybe the plug came from a wreck too?
Still a neat little item.... thanks boys, you done well!!

Cheers, Dan
