I like the RF Limited CR577, it's a ceramic mic with a nice sound, amplified to boost the modulation, and it comes wired for your radio. Check the sponsors, [Please login or register to view this link] , for one.

Greg, on the drop down box I checked CBRT when asked where I saw it.

Are you going to he in a noisy truck? Noise cancelling mics like the astatic 636 are good if you are. Ranger makes an sr198 I've heard good things about but don't waste money on a new road king 56. They used to be a good mic but the new ones are junk. If it doesn't say turner telex on the back it's a new one. The new ones only have turner on the back and the rubber lip guard is smaller.
If you're going to be in a low noise environment the d104 hand mic works well. You can remove or replace a resistor to get a little deeper tone out of it. The rf limited cr577 that MD mentioned is a good one. RF limited also has the 2018 extreme if you like echo. The 2018 also had adjustable talk back and a switchable noise cancelling feature.

The microphones are for non noisy environments. I have 2 636L's and a 575MB. I have a D104 desk, and a D104 mobile. I am aware of the noise issues. I don't normally drive with the windows down in my personal vehicles, and I can't run one in my work vehicles. I switch between vehicles up to 4 times a day. It's the nature of my job.

Glad you know about the noise thing. My reply was directed at K Williams since this is his thread.Willy O wrote:The microphones are for non noisy environments. I have 2 636L's and a 575MB.

Re: Aftermarket Mic for PC68 Elite?
My mistake,I understand I've been doing this off and on since the mid 70's. I know just enough about radios to get myself in trouble However, I've always had good sounding radios, thanks to some good people I've known through the years. I've been lucky!543FtWorth wrote:Glad you know about the noise thing. My reply was directed at K Williams since this is his thread.Willy O wrote:The microphones are for non noisy environments.
