Find the Mic 2004 Winners

Feb 1, 2005 1:00 AM

Since 1998, our annual sweepstakes has tasked our readers with finding the mic icon on each cover from the previous year. The icon, like the one shown here, is placed on every cover of Radio magazine.

While the mic icon is part of the logo and was also used in the 10 Years logo, the challenge was to find the hidden icon placed on the cover. Sometimes it was easy to find. Sometimes it was a real challenge.

We received a large number of responses, of which more than half correctly identified all 13 cover locations (12 monthly issues plus the September Product Source).

The entries with all 13 correct answers were placed into a random drawing for the three prizes.

This year’s winners and their prizes are:

William Hurne
WRMB-FM, Boynton Beach, FL
LPB Silent Mic Boom

Ross Pierce
KMUW-FM, Wichita, KS
ATI ML200 mic preamp

Rick Benson
Cox Radio, Jacksonville, FL
Neumann BCM 104 microphone

Congratulations to the winners.

The Find the Mic Sweepstakes is going monthly. Tell us where it is each month to win the monthly prize. At the end of the year, all entries will be eligible for the grand prize, a Neumann BCM 104 microphone.

No purchase necessary. See rules on page 59 of the February 2005 issue of Radio magazine or follow this link.
