The local TV station in our area that carries a weekly game of the week controls the ref's mike from the truck.
I've been on several times and never had a problem until the last game. They left my mike on the entire game - I guess they had a new audio guy in the truck. I found out about it the next day when I watched the tape of the broadcast.
Luckily, there was nothing broadcast that was bad. I did contact the station and they apologized. The mike set they use does not have an on/off switch. We'll be on again this year and I will use the mike. As a former play-by-play guy, I trust them - maybe a little too much. But remember, refusing the wear the mike will make you seem like a jerk to the broadcast team, and they have the last word about your performance.
