I have an Mc60 which I have mainly used on my TMV71A, but the 
cool thing is is that it will also run on the 480 and 2000.  So 
you could say that you get your money's worth because you don't 
have to buy a separate desk mic for each rig.  The 480 requires 
an adapter but the mic will plug directly into the Ts2000.  I 
must say that since I got the mic, I have not had my Hf rigs on 
the air because of moving and not yet getting antennas up, so 
can't comment on any RF issues on HF, but it gets good audio 
reports on VH and UHF.  Jim WA6EKS.

Hi;
Thanks Steve for the ts480 info.  These fingers are getting the 
hang of
it and might end up with a usable antenna.  Bought a sp23 
external
speaker and it made an astonishing difference in the receive 
audio.
Any thoughts as to a good desk microphone?  The logical choice 
might be
the mc60 but it has been known to have r f issues.  For the 
reasonable
future I'm going to be running 100 wats.  What have folks loved 
from heil?
