Keep your mic off of your seat and out of your cup holder - these scenarios commonly lead to a "stuck mic" rendering the emergency relay channels useless until your radio burns up.
This easy to install Magnetic Mic is a simple and clever alternative to a conventional microphone hang-up clip that helps you stay focused and safe: It lets you keep your eyes on the road when picking up and returning the microphone to its holder. Simply get the microphone close to the magnetic base piece and let it go. Attracted by the magnet, the microphone just snaps into place.
