[Yaesu] Which DTMF Mic? MH-36 or MH-59?

[kd4e]

Thanks to all for their responses!  I have made an
offer on a used MH-59 (including and not including
a swap of my stock MH-31).

If that does not work out I will save up for a
new one.  Small free tailgate here tomorrow morning.

I had read the AE7Q RF article, very helpful.

> The MH-36 is a more limited microphone with a few programmable buttons on

> The MH-59 is a fully featured microphone, but can be prone to RF getting
> into your audio.  When I'm operating portable, I use the MH-36 since the
> antenna tends to be in the near field.  I like the MH-59, but I don't take
> chances and if I have space in my pack, I'll bring it and use it but have
> the MH-36 as a backup.
> I just ran across this article on fixing the RF issue.
