This is a case where "close mic" technique is useful. Headsets with boom mics or hand-held mics, like the MH3 allow you to use a minimum setting for mic gain (because one's mouth is close to the mic), and that permits you a wider adjustment range for TX GATE, since any offending noise will be that much weaker. In some cases, you many not need to gate the audio at all.
Good advice, Ray. I would never think of using a mic more than a few inches from my mouth for ham radio. Boom headset mics like the Yamaha CM500 work really well. Before W6XU introduced our club to them, I used an RE11 on a boom stand.
