[Icom] 746 and MC 60?

I saw that soomeone had already set you straight about the KW MC60 as not
being suitable for the 746.  The SM 8 however is another story.  They are
not scarce, just pricey, but perhaps justifiably so.  It is a gooseneck type
electret mike having two cords with Icom cords/connectors so can accomodate
more than one IC rig at a time just by flicking the A/B switch. Each
connection has it own independent gain control located on bottom of the
mike.  I see these all the time on various web radio sites. Typically a good
used one will go for about $100-$125 which is much better than a new one.
If only one cord, it goes for less.  Optional cords can be purchase from
ICOM, but not cheaply. Easy to install.  Its a great mike, and use mine with
a 756PRO. Just watch qth.com and eham.net and other such site including ebay
and you will see them often enough. Good Luck!
