Uniden Mic differences

[au176]

Does anyone know what the difference is between similarly-numbered models BMKG0645001 and the BC645? Looking on Uniden's site, they look the same, but the BMKG0645001 ($19.99) is listed for use with PRO505Xl & PRO538W radios, while the BC645 ($24.99) is "Compatible with PRO500 Series CB Radios".

I have a PRO538W and will likely just buy the BMKG0645001 (NOT the original mic...) because it costs less ;-) and is specifically listed for my radio, BUT is the BC645 a better mic, and why the difference in compatibility? UNIDEN's "Ask support" has not gotten back to me.

i googled and found on reviews the bc645 is said to be too soft and and too quiet for the 500 series radios,,, i am betting the bc645 is intended for unidens bigger radios like the 68 and 78 series,,,,

Thanks kf4eyr. I had Googled and found the same results you had, but appreciate you doing the same! I was hoping for something more definitive. I'll give Uniden one more day to answer from their site. It's surprising (ok, SHOCKING) to me how little info is on their web site.

After that, I'll probably just get the BMKG0645001.
