If you have any idea at all how to use a soldering iron, you can make one
simply enough by hacking apart some old dead tape recorder - then you can
put it in a pen and tuck it in your top pocket ;)

Otherwise, there's a fair selection here:

Shame Tandy's is gone* :( ...but maybe you are lucky enough to live near a
Maplin's?

*Rat Shack's name in the UK, but it died about 10 years ago - shame, their
PZM mic technology was/is damn good.
