John, what kind of audio reports do you get? Those are far more
important than what a meter says. I have used Shure 444 mics on other
rigs for years, and gotten good reports. They work on radios as
different as a National NCX-5 and an Icom IC 202. I have used them in
the past on my Ten Tec Argonaut II. I always got good reports, and I
have a bass voice which can sometimes cause problems.
