do shortwave radios have a microphone?

SW radios of this type do not. Shortwave radios that are called transceivers and are used by ham radio operators do normally have a place to plug in a microphone. They are similar to CB radios but cover many more frequencies and require testing and licensing to operate.

Sorry ... I can't tell you since my walkies have no VOX feature. With the mikes right here, somehow I doubt they'd operate that feature in your radio, they're very basic and designed for PTT.

Initially thought to be useless, shortwave radio is used for long distance communication by means of skywave or skip propagation, in which the radio waves are reflected back to Earth from the ionosphere, allowing communication around the curve of the Earth. Shortwave radio is used for broadcasting of voice and music, and long-distance communication to ships and aircraft, or to remote areas out of reach of wired communication or other radio services. Additionally, it is used for two-way international communication by amateur radio enthusiasts for hobby, educational and emergency purposes.

It does. But it has a very sensitive tuning dial. And as with most shortwave the time of day and weather conditions make a big difference in what you can tune in. Bought it for my don to use for Boy Scouts Radio Merit Badge.

No, it is not set up as a speaker mic. The speaker output is very good from the radio.

There is no correct answer here. It's a question of taste. The SM7 is a typical "radio" mic, but can also be used as a voice over mic. There are some alternatives in the same price range that have more voice over characteristics, better frequency response and less noise in the signal. Still the SM7 is wonderful for radio (I own three of them) but it needs some extra tweaking with voice processing and EQ.

I am really sorry to tell you that I do not know. I have not used mine in some years but I cant remember it having a microphone.

Yes, in vox mode and with the proper headset attached to the radio. The radio will transmit when it detects your voice. And switches to receive when you stop talking.

Not that I have found. I have used it several times to call my wife and she was able to hear me perfectly well. But then, I did not buy them for the mic.

Radio Shack Carrie a microphone that can be plugged into the recorder and the attached to the handset for recording telephone conversations. Not sure if they are still available or not I have had one for several years and it worked on my cordless handset.

Yes, there is a small microphone in the left ear side at the bottom between the volume and on/off switches.

Yes, you have several options. on side of the radio there is a dual pin jack for the BAOFENG remote Microphone. you can either plug in a standard earphone/earbud to one of the jacks or you can plug in the BAOFENG remote Microphone and clip the mic to your lapel or shirt. the remote mic itself also has an earphone jack on it so you can listen privately for loud environments. my only complaint about the radio is that it takes a few seconds to pick up an incoming signal. but once you are aware of this it becomes second nature to wait 2-3 seconds after keying the mic before speaking so the beginning of your speech isn't clipped.

I agree with the first answer. As these are wireless microphones the frequencies must match that of the receiver/amplifier to work. The misrophones are both a microphone and a transmitter to send the sound to the receiver/amplifier.

Hi , This throat mic is for Kenwood , Hypario & some of Chinese brand like Baofeng,However, its not for some of walkie talkie has two prongs . eg . Midland , Motorola , Alinco..etc. May I know what radio are you using ?

Yes, the Bluedio has a mic and works similar to a regular bluetooth ear piece but with stereo though not quite sound canceling clearness. And you get FM radio builtin as well. An excellent bargain though slightly larger ear cushions would help immensely.

As far as I am aware there is no microphone in it. I load songs via a USB- USB mini short cable that comes w/the unit.

Yes you can, many radio stations on shortwave bands transmitt music, its quite interesting. Do not expect exceptional sound quality though.
