Jerry: I use a Heil ICM mike with my SDR. It requires 8 volts phantom power since it was designed to be used with ICOM's. I built a small phantom power supply (battery operated) to make it work. It works VERY well and I constantly get good audio reports.

I need to check out my new SDR-1000 on phone. I don't operate phone, so would rather not spend money on a microphone that might never be used again. Anybody using an ICOM-compatible mike with the SDR-1000? My ICOM HM-35 hand mike has the same connector that my SDR-1000 requires. It is even partially wired the same, because I see the PTT works. I know I have to provide 8VDC to the mike to get it to work, but I am wondering if it's output level is usable with the SDR-1000 when I do all that. Alternatively, will a cheapie "computer" mike work with the SDR-1000?
