I am looking to but the old school space bird and or tweety bird key up noise toy's, not the one's on ebay or ees, those do not sound anything like the one in this video I have attached, this guy said his is in a turner 2 he has had since the 1960's?

I will buy them in any mic like a d104,turner,shure or a sadelta in the video listen to the 0:29 and the 1:07 mark in this video. this is the one I am looking for and will pay a great price for.

That was the worst assault to my ears that I have heard in a long time.
What ever in the world would possess you to want to do something like that...
Your radio sounds like listening to a leaking air manifold, the audio is real crappy in that video.
At the very least, you should have closed your squelch so the only thing we heard was two people talking..
If you really wanted to impress him, you would get a radio that made a loud ping - the ping was put in the Brownings because when you suppressed the carrier and one of the side bands, a person couldn't hear when you stopped talking between pauses. That was the only thing that made the Browning radios so desirable.

I remember those, used to have one myself. Pressing the button would make them warble and by adding different value resistors you could speed up or slow the speed of the warble. Sounds good.
