the mic you buy for the rig depends on two things:  how much money you  
want to spend and what kind of operating you want to do.  Example--for  
ragchewing, if on a budget, Shure SM58, a good solid dynamic mic used  
widely.  If you have money to spend, Heil PR40, a very good sounding  
mic right into the 870 or even better (and more money) the  
Electrovoice RE27.   For ham 3 khz SSB operating the SM58 is probably  
good enough.   For chasing dx and contesting a heil mic with the HC5  
element is a good choice I think.
