Default FIND LETTER IN CELL (cond. form mult entries not wrking)

in Conditional Format, trying to shorten many examples of:

=OR(LEFT(CM9,1)="h",RIGHT(CM9,1)="h")

to something like:

=OR(FIND(CM9,"H"),FIND(CM9,"X"))
but cannot get multiple items to be valid in a conditional format. is there
another way or something doing wrong? thanks.
