Parabolic PRB/2 Microphone Dish. This 2-foot-diameter parabolic microphone reflector was used to change the response of the microphone to make it more "hyper cardioid", which made it very directional. It was used mainly for obtaining, for example, close sound of a golf ball being hit at an outside broadcast.
