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...
