HF mobile radio questions

But Bill, basically your problem was with a crappy remote mic and the service you got (or did not get) as a result of it,not the radio itself. Those remote mics have a big problem with RF feedback. Anyone running the regular MH-31 mic does not have that problem.


I LOVE MY YAESU FT-857 WITH THE STOCK MH-31 MICROPHONE


But then that's just ME.

You are correct, the reason I bought the remote mic was to make mobile operation easier

Highlander, I dont even want to remember the RCI days, to many radios :roll:

KingCobra_CDX882 , are your Icom radios PC programmable?

I had to send my mic out to have mods done to it to open up the frequency response a little more, that info is also here.
I was going to get the 857 but after adding all the accessories to it the price was pretty close to the ic-7000.

What accessories are you referring to?

filters and mic board to improve user enhancement
