Todd,
    My department uses the MT1000 and yes we have had a problem with
the
speaker mics.  A friend of mine who is a Motorola dealer and also does
our department's service work, has told me that he has had numerous
problems with these mics.  Apparently he delivered a whole order of
these mics to one department and then was told to return the mics to
the
factory because there were a group of mics which are faulty.  I know
that one of the local police departments has been using them and I have
not heard of any complaints so it may just be a problem with a certain
production run and not the mics in general.  As far as I know Motorola
offers a couple of different mics for the MT1000; a regular speaker
mic,
a speaker mic with an antenna, and a headset type with voice activated
transmit.  Our department had some modified mics which allowed us to
plug in our cardiac monitor to transmit ECG.  We now just use an
adapter
which scews on in place of the speaker mic.  We have had a few problems
with this too so part of the problem with both units might be in the
contact / pin conection used in both pieces; you have to make sure the
contacts are continually cleaned.  I would recomend that if you are
going to use any external adapter or mic with the MT1000 in a wet
environment, you should try and find some way to seal the connection or
at least keep it protected.  Hope this helps!
