Hi I noticed in my Kenwood MC 60 a microphone that all the basic functions can run without the use of a battery. The only thing that the battery is good for is to power the microphone element. I am wondering if it would be possible to change the element to a heil one and bypass the battery on together. God bless, Rev. Mark wz0k God loves you!
