Replacement Mic Options; Replacement for standard dx5000 varients

I am considering a replacement mic for my standard v4 Maas dx5000 as the standard mic is way too small for my meat fisted hands. Im not very knowledgable in this area and with so many different mics and types available, I though I'd put it out there to see what the more experienced members would consider to be a good match for this radio.

Ideally, I'd like a mic that retains the CH up/down function, and not a desk homebase type, so I can take the Maas out for mobile DX if needed. Ive looked at several online but i'm really quite lost as to what is going to be suitable/compatible and will produce decent results.

Ive got no specific budget to stick too, but dont want to spend a fortune for anything Ill spend a lot of time spitting into...

Anyone offer some help or recomendations please?...thanks in advance

Not sure you are going to have much luck unless you are prepared to do some mod yourself... most 4 pin mics without the up and down buttons have a problem with ssb and am on these radios, and you should not connect pin 4 of using just a replacement mic.
I am sure other people may be able to chip in on possible solutions for you, personally i like the included mic, just make sure you turn the echo on... not up but just click on and the audio is very good..
On these rigs, the mic is powered and acts like a power mic when the echo function is switched on and standard when switched off.. at least that is the impression i got when using mine... Anytone at5555
