i have two of them and i dont think i paid 110 for the pair.<br>
<br>
if you are getting RF make sure you are seperating the keying ground
and the mic ground, it matters.... i have a terrible RF environment
here for gear and the SM-8 is one of my shining stars.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Agreed. Will absolutely
drive any radio and adjust to match
response as well. True, the mike "a/b"
switch does not isolate the necessary
connections. For me, not an issue...."all

Weedy......chapter 1, paragraph 2, "shack
