Well since people are talking about mikes from the tmv 7 A, is there a cable
or some kind of modification to get an hf mike to work on that radio. I've
got some old fation desk mikes that I'm not using. I tried one on that radio
and it wouldn't work. It wouldn't even transmit. I gather that the hand mike
has a component that keys up the radio, and the desk mikes do not.-----

Just don't get the one for the TM-271A, it will not work on the TMV7 or
TMG707A. I honestly don't know why but it doesn't work at all, it acts like
the up button is pressed the hole time. I mention that so people don't just
go get the first mic they see that's Kenwood and expect it to work. I don't
know the number of that mic but if you look at it,  it will not work on the
TMV7. I need a new mic for my TMG707A, that's why I found that out the hard
why. I think for the price of the mic and the age and use of the radio, I'll
just live with it for now and maybe get that TMV71 or something when I can
afford it.
