The MC 60 has a place for 2 aa batteries. Mine does.

Kenwood accessories run by using power from the radio.  No need for 
batteries.

Hello list,

Does anyone here use the Kenwood MC60A desktop mic? I ordered one with my 
TS590, and I can't figure out how to insert the batteries to power the 
preamp. I got the PDF manual, and it talks about removing four screws to get

at the battery compartment. But the bottom of my unit has six screws, four 
of which hold the rubber feet to the case. I took all the screws out except 
for the two screws holding what I think is the impedance switch but can't 
get the bottom plate off. The fit is so snug I can't insert the blade of a 
screwdriver to pry it off.

Thanks for any help.

So does anyone here use this mic?
