XTS 1500 Microphone?

[orlanditon]

Hey Guys, this is my first time here. I'm a complete noob when it comes to radios so I beg that you use plain English when talking to me about this following topic.

I am a police explorer for my local police department. My father(police officer from different department) came home yesterday and gave me a Motorola Commander II RMN5067B microphone for me to use when on ride alongs and working details.

ONE PROBLEM THOUGH. I'm not sure if it is compatible with what radio my police department uses: XTS 1500. Is it?

If not, what microphone would be compatible with the XTS 1500? Thank you all in regards.

You're right, it isn't.

Thank you for the feedback... BUT. Why is it that microphone you provided works for ALL the XTS radios? That adapter on the end would work for the XTS 1500, and the radios that the Commander II works with(XTS 3500 and XTS 5000). But the Commander II adapter would work only for the 3500 and 5000, but not the 1500? So confusing >.<

There are a few other lower priced OEM mics, as well as numerous other non-OEM mics that vary from very cheap to expensive. If you are spending your own money, and depending on how you plan on using the mic, you might consider looking into something less expensive. You can find a good quality used OEM mic that will work on that radio for next to nothing on ebay. Good luck.
