[Harp-L] Crystal mic repairs

[Michael Easton <diachrome@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pete Sheridan turned me onto a guy that he heard fixes Astatic  
crystal element mics.

I emailed him last night to find out if he replaces the entire  
element or just the crystal.  Here is his reply.

"Replace the DEAD crystal is $75, for the element which is the same  
thing is $45 out the door. You must send in your mic for repair. Gib"

His website is: http://www.west-techservices.com     Click on  
microphone repair in the left side box.

Now we have  good sources for repairs on vintage CR's, CM's and now  
crystal elements.
