Review on 🎀 TYT Platinum Rainproof Shoulder Remote Speaker Mic for MD-380 MD-UV380 radios - Heavy Duty Mic for Kenwood & Baofeng Radios by Bernardino Suazo

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Identical to BTech QHM22 microphone (but a few dollars cheaper)

TYT MD-380 (WITHOUT "Powerboat"). The sound of TX and RX is clear. The TX sound level is good. The build quality seems satisfactory (I did not disassemble it). Another comment said the PTT wasn't accurate, but my "click" is crisp and clear. This mic is identical to the BTech QHM22 mic I already had. Only the nameplate and the model number differ. 3.5mm mono headphone jack. The description says 2.5mm in one spot and 3.5mm, but it's exactly 3.5mm. If you plug a stereo headset/earphone into it, the sound will only come out of the The only downside is that the external headphone jack is on the side of the microphone and if the headphone plug is "straight" (rather than right angle), it's on your hand, especially if you're right-handed . better. If you hold the microphone in your left hand, the connector may be caught between your fingers. The best place would be the bottom of the microphone, but the rounded shape of the caseback doesn't allow for that.
