Ok, so I picked up this little gem off the worlds biggest auction site. Looked alright but when I hooked up the battery I heard something click(like a relay)inside. Didn't think too much about it till I hooked it up and it was keying up the radio without even touching the mic. I checked continuity between pins 1-4. Btw, its wired for Cobra/Galaxy. All was fine. As soon as i hooked the battery up and it clicked inside it was in constant key-up mode with no receive after that. Unhooked it and all was fine. I only purchased it because I was too lazy to wire up a internal roger beep. Yes I know these brands are known to be junk. Anyone have this mic or this problem??

@ ButtFuzz:Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
