There were problems with the early versions of the MH-59. I read all of the forums and there were enough reports on how suseptible the mic was to interference that I almost didn't buy it. But I noticed that the reports stopped and the more recent reviews were ffavorable.

So I bought the mic for my FT-857D and it was one of the best purchase I have made in ham accessories. The only thing I did was install and configure the mic and rerun the ALC adjustment and immediately I started getting unsolicited audio reports about how good my audio sounded for a mobile station. But the biggest benefits of the mic is being able to pick it up and change bands, frequencies, and tune my ATAS-120A and never take my eyes off the road.?
