[Yaesu] FT2000 Proc

[kk2ed]

I concur with Fern.  I have tried many microphones over the years, and one of the best microphones I have ever used is the black colored Shure 444D (not to be confused with the older grey colored 444). No matter which rig I have run over the years (781, Pro2, TS950SD, TS870S, FT1000, etc) I always reverted back to my tried and true 444D. Much better sounding than any of the Heil stuff I've played with, regardless of the rig.

Hart:  If you want excellent audio, I would suggest that you acquire a good dynamic microphone such as the Shure 444D desk microphone. Even though they're an older mic, it's not too difficult to find them used at the flea markets or on line. You'll have excellent transmit audio without or with using the speech processor. I have used them for many years on a large variety of rigs and alway get excellent comments on my transmit audio. Years ago, I tried the Heil series of mics with louzy results. I hope that this doesn't offend the heil fans but that's been my findings. Cheers from Fern
