Just looking for a Mic for my Kenwood ts-570. The base of my old MC60 has crapped out and I need a replacement.
I am also open to suggestions on what kind of mic to look for. I do need to try and keep it on the cheap side being a cheap ass ham ....

4 pin or 8?
I am surprised at such a sudden deterioration in a woman whose only ailment was a lazy anus.
That should be an 8 pin.

Yes, 8 pin. Are you looking for a stock type hand mike, desk mic or are you willing to experiment.
I can probably help you out. I have a TS-570S and here lately I have been experimenting with some cheap assed mics and have been getting great results.
I see now that the title says DESK MIC..... somehow I missed that.

Uh, that would be an 8 pin.
An 8 pin that utilizes that hard to reach with a soldering iron center pin.
I believe a 1000 ohm studio mic can be tailored through the menu system to have high and low cut offs as well as mid-range peaking.
Let me see what I can come up with. I happen to have a generic vocal mic I'll wire up and see how well it works. I don't have much in it. Do you have a foot or hand PTT switch?Originally Posted by kb2crk

Yes, to all of the above. The center pin is a ground and is not that hard to reach. Menu #14 is TX EQ

The only mic switch I had was the one on the mc60. The microphone part itself works fine but it is a pain to work the small slide switch on the back of it. The base has some issues where the audio is not making it through all the time or comes out with distortion. neither one is good.

I have a couple MC85s I'm planning to sell.
