Actually, you should be able to find a parts mic on ebay pretty cheap.

Not sure if there are any replacement parts available or not.

Perhaps someone else can advise you on that.

I would start with checking the settings on the mic. Slide each one up and down to see if any takes that hum out. You could possibly be overdriving the mic gain or echo.

Just suggestions to start with.

Not sure, but the 142 might be relay switched from TX to RX... the relay might be dirty or going bad if in fact that is the case. I'd have to do a bit more research to give you a definite answer on that one.

Hi BigT, just curious here.... did you have someone do a peak and tune on your radio in the past? It's very possible that the RK-56 or even the stock mic may be fine and the only problem being that someone clipped the limiter and/or opened up the modulation on it improperly, causing some overdrivin...

That's the control for relay or electronic switching, depending on what your radio requires.
You'll have to look your radio up to see which.
