Richard,

I run a heil Gold Line and always get nice audio reports.  I've used it 
on the 2000, 480, and 590.   Mine was a free promotion back in 2001, so 
I didn't have to pay the price Heil was asking.  I think Audio Technica 
has some that sound fine at a very good price.  Check out the microphone 
reviews on e-ham.com
