Great price for this high output microphone! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I got the microphone for my FT-991A and tried it out last night. I made a QSO on 40m and the other ham gave me a good audio report and said that my voice was clear and strong. I had the mic gain turned down to 20! My stock hand mic needed at least 55 mic gain. So far I am happy with my decision. I may order one for my other radio too. Why spend more?

Best MIC for my needs! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Have two of the ARCO cm1 microphones, have a Kenwood TS990s HF radio, The radio works very well with ARCO mic, was looking for a mic that sounds good drives this radio well an can close mic the microphone with out overdriving the radio and not have background noise coming in on my transmission, the mic is light to hold in your hand for long periods of time and does not take up much room on radio desk, so for me its a 5+. I tried a MC43s mic an there high priced desk mic the MC90 an a couple after market mic's but could not find perfic match until I found the ARCO cm1 that's is why I have two. Its the best MIC for my needs.........73,,,,,,,,kb6hrt

It's the Best I've Used. Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Licensed almost 60 years, many microphones have been on the desk and held too. This microphone is simply superb. It's connected to an Alinco (wiring for Kenwood is same). Reports are outstanding, my old weaker voice sounds stronger, a big plus. It's a keeper. Alan gets my highest recommendation as the seller of this great mic.

It really gave a punch to output! I can see the meter pops real nice when modulating . The reports are great clarity is outstanding.
