I use a analog NMN6128 on mine without a problem the Jedi style NMN6225 should work too. You do have to change the antenna connector nut to the SMA style. The public safety style with the antenna from an analog will not work as the antenna RF switch needs a pin to physically change the direction of the RF to the top of the mic.

If the speaker/mic does NOT have the antenna on it you can interchange the mics between Sabers and Astro Sabers. If the speaker/mic DOES have the antenna on it then you can't. The "antenna" mic for the Saber won't work on the Astro Saber and vice-versa, reason being that the antenna switching methods are completely different.
