What is a good spy mic to record conversations?
I'm looking for a microphone that is barely visible to record conversations between the person wearing the microphone and the person being talked to.

Reply: I recommend the Crown GLM-100E. The GLM-100E does not come with a connector, so you (or an electronics friend) would solder on a connector that mates with your recording device. If your recorder has a stereo 1/8" phone plug with plug-in power , solder the GLM-100E cable leads to a 1/8" stereo phone plug like this:

Tip: White lead
Ring: Red lead
Sleeve: Shield

Crown does not sell its products directly, but you can find a vendor by going to www.froogle.com and typing in "Crown GLM-100E" in the search field.
