: Well, if you browse the bay place, with "Yaesu FT-60", and disregard the
: 100-odd battery offers, you'll find a variety of microphones and
earphones.
: I've seen the gamut from hand-held speaker/mikes, to in-the-ear and PTT
: on the lapel, to throat mikes, I've seen one skull-type (think fireman),
and
: some clandestine types (rubber ear insert, mike on the cuff and PTT in
: the hand. You look, it's out there.
I've checked the bay a few times, searched for ft-60 microphone, which
narrows it down to about 12 items. I bought one each of each type of throat
mic, they were flimsy crap, poorly designed, more like a WalMart toy with
some electronics stuffed into them as an afterthought, good for parts
though. I'm considering getting one each of the ear-mic and boom mic from
MFJ, numbers 283 and 293 I think, maybe 282, 292, my notes aren't handy. I
saw some where the mic and PTT were together both on the lapel and down the
sleave, not sure this is practical in higher noise areas.
