Hi all I’ve had my president McKinley for a while now and I’m looking to change my mic for something else that’s compatible with it not fussed if I s a power mic or not as long as it doesn’t cause any harm to the box & also it would need to have up / down buttons on it as I don’t want to wear out the selector button as it gets used enough for other menu settings so can anyone please advise cheers & beers & 73 Lima alpha 1.

Hi Im using a Red Devil from Knights which seems to have improved my modulation on FM as it was a little quiet but I didn’t want to open the box. But this hasn’t got the channel change buttons on the top of the microphone so you would have to still use the channel change on the box. Great little mic though!
