Tom,

You can (and should) apply TX EQ to match the microphone - many mics 
have a lot of bass response that will eat up transmitter power without 
adding any intelligibility, so cut the bottom two bands of the equalizer 
completely down.  With microphones that have a flat response, you will 
want to add a bit of boost to the frequencies near 3500 to 4000 Hz to 
improve intelligibility.  The Elecraft microphones and Heil amateur mics 
(as well as some others) may have this peaking as a part of the 
microphone element design, others may not - TX EQ allows you to adjust 
for the response of just about any microphone.
