Kenwood MC-60A Desk Microphones

Kenwood MC-60A Desk Microphones provide a rich and crisp audio response that is a large part of the legendary sound that Kenwood transceiver owners have enjoyed for decades.

MC-60A microphones have a handy coiled cord terminated with a standard 8-pin round mic connector for use on dozens of modern Kenwood transceivers.
They also feature a large Push-To-Talk switch (PTT) with a locking button for long transmissions in the roundtable.

Classically crafted and finished in a light-ash hue with black trim, MC-60A dynamic unidirectional microphones are built with a heavy die-cast base that really stays put. Up-Down tuning buttons on the base controls frequency on many newer radios and a dual impedance switch on the mic body allows them to be adapted for use on older transceivers. As delivered, they are set to low impedance.

Many long term users aren't aware that MC-60A Desk Mics have a built-in preamp that is powered by two internal AA batteries. This is a great feature for some of the older transceivers. In fact, these mics have a great smooth sound when the preamp switch is set to "Off", or when they're used without batteries. This is especially true on the newer radios, such as the TS-2000 series, with excellent mic input circuits that do not need pre-amplified audio.

MC-60A microphones are compatible with many modern and legacy Kenwood (and other-brand) transceivers, including mobile transceivers with RJ-45 8-pin modular mic connectors when used with the optional Kenwood MJ-88 8-pin round to 8-pin modular adapter.
