As with the postage stamps, Ten Tec will probably issue all future with the printing that you have and offer to replace your "defective" microphone element <g>!

Together with my excellent O2 I purchased an excellent Ten Tec 708A unidirectional microphone which an informal test shows as indeed being a cardioid or 'uni-directional' microphone. The Ten Tec website includes a graphic at http://images.tentec.com/radio/products/708/708Base.png which shows 'UNI-DIRECTIONAL' on the base yet *my* 708A contradicts this, having 'OMNI-DIRECTIONAL' printed on it.

I am awaiting Ten Tec's verdict on this anomaly but I hope this proves to be incredibly rare, like a postage stamp printed upside down and will eventually be worth millions. Once a provisional valuation has been established I will eventually consider bids which recognise the extreme rarity of this article (dollars, pounds or euros accepted provided there are enough 0s in the figure).

Or I might just use it...
