It works out of the box. Audio level is fine. No distortion, very clear. Audio response is flat. It is not filled with high or low frequencies. No motor boating. (RF getting into mic circuit) Well worth the money.
This mic is solid and sturdy, and has a small PTT button. It has good audio out and good mic pickup. Adjusted the mic gain a touch lower on the radio to avoid overdriving the audio signal. No lights or bells and whistles but appears to be waterproof as well as rugged.

Hand Mic for AT-D868UV et.
WAY WAY better than the cheap Baofeng mics. Sturdy but not exactly heavy duty cord. The plug(s) molded case is very stout and easy to grab which is good because when inserted it is a strong and sure fit. Could probably hold the radio if dropped. Sound quality is as good as the radio, I think better for the microphone.

Hand mic for AT-D868UVE
On air reports so far are great. Everyone says it sounds the same as the built-in mic, which is all I would ask. Great product!

Great sounding mike
Got good audio reports. It seems well made and I expect it to last a long time. I also appreciate the fast delivery. Notice that it does not have a â…› inch jack for an earphone. This would be very useful in crowded rooms.

Pretty darn good
Used on my Tytera MD-380 radio in DMR mode on DMR Simplex frequency 79 and no issues at all. Very loud and clear. Plugged into a Baofeng UV-82HP and there is a noise that you hear thru the mike when you release the PTT. Not sure what it is, but I will be keeping this mike with my MD-380.

Best Mic and value on the Web
I needed a Mic for my MD-380 and heard that this was the best way to go. It is indeed an excellent mic as well as a better speaker than what is in the radio. The value is excellent. On top of all that their service and response was an added treat. I would do business again with Connect Systems.
