Hi folks!
On one occasion I bought a HMN9057B speaker mic with a VHF antenna thrown in with it. Since I still don't have a VHF HT1250, I wanted to use this mic with my UHF radio, with a UHF antenna screwed in it, of course. But having done a Google search on the part number of my mic, I saw that some sellers consider it a VHF-only device.
On the contrary, I wanted to buy a RMN5073 mic to use with my XTS2500 VHF. But the seller claims it doesn't fit VHF radios... I'm a little confused.
Are all the public safety mics the same or are they different for different frequency band radios? Can I buy a "UHF" mic and use it with a VHF radio with a suitable antenna?
Thanks in advance!
