Description: The MFJ-1261 Microphone Control Center allows you use one microphones, modular or 8-pin round with any two radios. Movable jumpers allow for matching either 8-pin round or 8-pin modular microphones to the rigs. You can even plug in an external PTT foot switch to free your hands for contesting / DXing or for plugging in a computer or voice keyer to control the PTT line for automatic operation

RF on signal  Time owned: 6 to 12 months
Update for the MFJ 1261: Maybe I should have waited a while before I made my review. The mic switch works fine but when the HF amplifier is in use it picks up RF. I have both the MFJ 1261 mic switch and the 1275 sound card interface when I bypass them no RF but, at 100 watts they work fine. I have the same RF on 2M and 70CM when I run power on those bands.

One mic two different rigs  Time owned: 0 to 3 months
For me the MFJ 1261 is great I have a Kenwood TS570-S and a Kenwood TS790-A I can use my MC60-A mic on both radios without unplugging from one to the other. It saves ware and tear on the radios, and with multiple mic/radio combos we all have picked up the wrong mic at one time or another. You also can set it up for different pin combinations for different brands of radios.
