I would like everyone's opinion on a good desk mike for a Yaesu 767GX. Thanks for the answers.

For my FT-990, I went "pawn shopping" and found a Shure SM-58 mic. ,a 8"-14" adjustable desk stand & a 25ft. mic. cable (I shortened) for $40. I had them hook up the mic. to a amp they had and tried it out and then gave it my technical inspection of shakeing it to see if it would rattle<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"> I looked around the net and only found one desk top PTT switch I liked and it was $69 ! I made my own with a $1.99 switch from rat shack and a old mouse and cable.I gutted the mouse, drilled a hole in the right side mouse button and installed the switch and doubled up the wires in the mouse cable and soldered a end to fit the radio.I also made a lead slug by melting down some old tire weights and put it where the ball was for a better "feel".I used it all weekend and had no problems<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"> I would suggest "pawn shopping" and check out the mic.s they have and see if one has the sound you are looking for, I came out much cheaper than a MD-1 etc.<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)">

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare

    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned

    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.
