    Ranger SRA198....or RoadKing 56 for most radios.

    On my Magnum radios, the stock mic is good.

    Astatic 636l, because it sounds good, has the best noise cancellation, it's made in America, and it's durable. I've been running the same one with the same cable for four years now. I switched after having trouble with the cables on two RK56s, although I've heard they've fixed that now. I tried a skythumper 65 once, it got stolen after a month or so, so I can't attest to it's durability, but it's noise cancelling was nearly as good as the Astatic and better than an RK56.
