FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION:
Microphone, dynamic M-33A/AIC is a low impedance, low output level boom-mounted microphone.
It is designed to be mounted on headset assemblies which position the microphone against the operator’s
lips, permitting hand-free communication. It is suited for vehicular, aircraft, and other noisy locations
where the operation of the communication equipment is incident to operation of other equipments. The
close-talking design reduces the percentage of distant noise picked up from operating machinery, thereby
allowing intelligible communication under extreme ambient noise conditions.
