Which tactile switch is this?

[Jackching]

It has an "S" and "32" on the back of it. I pulled it from my vhf mic and it's testing bad. I dont know which new one to purchase because i don't know what to go off of. Can anyone tell me how to find the type and size of it?

measure it with calipers

That is a very common (6mm) right-angle PCB mount tactile switch. Everyone makes one, critical is the button length. Some manufacturers spec H to the middle of the switch, not the back, so be careful.
My last order of some was Aliexpress Javino Store and I was happy with them. E-Switch melt too easily, Omron is the best quality.

Ok. On digikey i see they include voltage and amps in their descriptions. Should i consider this?

No, it is not important because these switches are only used for low power. The button length and mounting pins (2 or 4) are important to check.
Filter: Mounting Style, Through Hole, Right Angle.

Now all i need are calipers. I dont think the measuring tape will work hehe

So on Digikey, I'm assuming H = Actuator Length, Right Angle in the filters section?
