I have a Remote Mt. Mid pwr Spectra that has the mic connector on the back of the Head housing and on the front.

My question is: can i have two mic's hooked up at the same time? Will this cause problems or damage the radio?

I would like to add a handset mic. for quiet/pvt use

it wouldn't be very private unless you had some way of shutting off the big speaker

The handset has a switch for that

my work vehicle here in the FD has a midpowered VHF spectra, with remote mount to the front, and a separate mic/speaker to the rear of my vehicle... works fine...

Parts carries a systems 9000 privacy handset w/ hangup cup, and control switch.

They were popular for a time in transit, ambulance, taxis, and limo's.

HLN1220B, list is about $300.

Thats what i have HLN1220A

I would like to add this to my Spectra inserting it in the other mic jack on the control head.

I would like to know if it will work or if it will cause problems or damage the radio.

Thanks

It'll work fine, together w/ a palm mic.
