I had one years ago, should work well on a Uniden PC122, it is a noise cancelling mic so you will have to hold it close to your mouth. I just bought and wired a Astatic DM107-E to my Texas Ranger TR696FD1, it is the same element just not noise cancelling.

The Duracell 175 is the best, you can find it online for a decent price, not much else will fit in the original battery holder.
