Hi.
It is a hand microphone. I have mine set up so that PF1 voices the
frequency, PF2 voices the S meter reading, PF3 operates the RX Monitor
(which opens the squelch), and PF4 operates the TF SET which in effect
gives a reverse function on repeaters.
If I could find a desk mike that did that, I'd probably get it, but being
able to get at those four functions quickly was worth more to me than
having a desk mike instead of a hand mike.
