Hi folks,

Total comms noob here. My only experience with radio communications is with the dinky little earpiece that comes with a Baofeng.

What will I need, other than the headset and radio themselves, to use MSA Sordin Pro-X in a setup with a Baofeng UV-5R? I'd like to not have to use the built-in mic on the radio, of course.

Is it possible to use the built-in mics on the Sordins as the comms mic? If it is, how? And is it a good idea at all?

I know I need a Kenwood 2-pin connector for the radio, and that the Sordins have an AUX port. I don't know anything else; what I need, what plugs into what, etc. Ideally anything outside of the radio and headset would cost sub-$200.

Thanks in advance.
