Hello Fern,
I rarely use the voice modes (except at FD), so having one good hand mike 
(and yes, I did adjust the tx eq) is quite enough for me.
However I'd be happy to listen to your two mikes on the air if that is what 
you have in mind.
73,

Good morning Erik:  If you would like a good comparison between a dynamic 
mic and the MH-2 electret mic, I would be glad to do it with you. I am using 
a dynamic mic normally used with a commercial vhf/uhf mobile which also has 
the UP/DOWN keys and have compared with the electret MH-2 hand mic and there 
is really no comparison. With the MH-2, I have to fiddle around with the 
transmit audio equilizer while the  dynamic mic is perfect as is.Now a 
problem with the MH-2 is that the curly cord is way too stiff while the 
dynamic mic that I use has a nice long super flexible curly cord. I have 
also tried a Kenwood dynamic hand mic but found that the audio from that mic 
really sucked as it has way to much bass which can be compensated some but 
it still is no match for my commercial hand mic.  73 from Fern with K3 #412
