I always announce and signal....whether "mic'd" or not.

I've only done a microphone a handful of times...this Saturday will be another instance. To answer the one question, here in WI, it is getting more and more prevelant....especially the closer you get to the Fox Valley/Green Bay area, where they take the whole football experience, from top to bottom, a little more seriously. Of all the regular season varsity games I did this year, 5 were done with a microphone. Our playoff game last Tuesday was NOT.
You have to remember to slow things down and talk normally. If you don't rush yourself, you'll remember to turn it on and off when you should and get everything down in your head before you turn it on. Most of the systems I've worked with have about a second or so delay, too.
