Description

A&A Engineering MikeMaster vintage ham radio microphone preamplifier / processor Wired for Yaesu

The A&A Engineering MikeMaster (or Mikemaster) is a vintage ham radio microphone preamplifier/processor with adjustable gain, limiting/compression, rotation point, and noise gating. It was designed to improve transmitted audio quality, reduce background noise, and boost weak microphone signals—especially useful for older dynamic mics or low-output setups with rigs like Yaesu transceivers.
 
It was featured in the March 1998 issue of QST magazine (project article by W6FR, pages 33-36). A&A Engineering (Anaheim, CA) sold it as a kit (~$70) or assembled & tested unit (~$90 in the late 1990s), pre-wired for popular brands including Yaesu, ICOM, and Kenwood.
 
 
Key Details 
  • Model: MikeMaster wired specifically for Yaesu Model 210-ASY 8 Pin mic connector.
  • Manufacturer: A & A Engineering, 2521 W. LaPalma, Unit K, Anaheim, CA 92801. Phone: (714) 952-2114, Fax: (714) 952-3280.
  • Connectors: Mike In (multi-pin), Mike Out, external power (POS/NEG switch), with a cable ending in a Yaesu-compatible connector.
  • Features (per original ads): Adjustable gain, compression/limiting, noise gate threshold. Helps clean up audio and punch through better on SSB.
     
     
It’s a solid, purpose-built accessory from the era when hams often built or bought simple audio processors for better “talk power” without splatter.
