Adjustable Gain Electret Mic for use with Handheld Radios

Had to shout to be barely heard with the stock (DM-21) dynamic mic with Baofeng-type radios. Wrote to Rugged radios tech support and "Raffy" replied to get this part. The Adjustable gain Mic worked great with Radioddity GD-88 DMR radio as well as with Baofeng uv-5r type radios. It was easy to replace, but you will need a very tiny phillips screwdriver to change it. I would like to point out three things: 1.) Baofeng, Radioddity, Kenwood and others require this mic. It would be nice to have an option to purchase an H41 headset with this mic as being an option. List is as "For use with Baofeng UV-5R type radios" and most every ham radio folks will know exactly what to get. 2.) Be nice to bundle this headset with the K-plug adapter cord. 3.) The foam that came on the DM-21 mic does not fit over the larger Electret mic. The Electret mic is larger.

The mic worked fine, but did not resolve a problem I was having, so returned it.

My radio finally works with VOX. I can only assume that the microphone that came on my headset was noise cancelling and my radio settings were not sensitive enough to key up when I spoke. Now it does so I can communicate with my spotter when rock crawling and keep my hands on the important stuff.

Was not the electric gain mic, waS the mu102 for head set offroad

The audio from the Baofeng GT3 Plus handheld is now a really good, with stock elements you could hardly hear it . As well I had an issue with one of the elements and Rugged Radio just shipped me a new cartridge no questions.
