 Microphone plug pin numbers viewed from rear of pin receptacle. 

 

Be sure that the housing and the knurled ring of Fig. 2 are pushed back onto 
the microphone cable before starting to solder. If the washer is not captive to 
the pin receptacle body, make sure that it is placed on the threaded portion of 
the pin receptacle body before soldering. 

 

If the microphone jack is used to hold the pin receptacle during the soldering 
operation, best results are obtained when the connections to pins 1 and 3 are 
made first and then the connections to pins 2 and 4. Use a minimum amount 
of solder and be careful to prevent excessive solder accumulation on pins, 
which could cause a short between the pin and the microphone plug housing. 

 

6.

 

When all soldering connections to the pins of the microphone plug are 
complete, push the knurled ring and the housing forward and screw the 
housing onto the threaded portion of the pin receptacle body. Note the location 
of the screw clearance hole in the plug housing with respect to the threaded 
hole in the pin receptacle body. When the housing is completely threaded into 
the pin receptacle body, a final fraction of a turn either clockwise or 
counterclockwise may be required to align the screw hole with the threaded 
hole in the pin receptacle body. When these are aligned, the retaining screw is 
then screwed into the place to secure the housing to the pin receptacle body. 

 

7.

 

The two cable clamp retainer screws should now be tightened to secure the 
housing to the microphone cord. If the cutting directions have been carefully 
followed, the cable clamp should secure to the insulating jacket of the 
microphone cable. 

 

8.

 

Upon completion of the microphone plug wiring, connect and secure the 
microphone plug in the transceiver.

Before returning a radio to us for warranty service, please call our Service 
Department for a Repair Authorization Number (RAN). This  RAN must be 
written below your return address on the outside of the shipping box. Boxes 
which arrive without a RAN will be refused, and the shipping company will 
return the unopened box to you. Be sure to have a pen and paper ready along 
with the serial number of your radio before calling. We will give you the RAN 
and our shipping address over the phone. The telephone number of the Service 
Department is (760) 480-8800, and we suggest calling between 10:00 AM and

Please include a note with a detailed description of the symptoms. This is 
important because it will help the technician who works on your radio to locate 
your problem. Intermittent problems are easily overlooked, so be sure to give 
as much detail as possible in your note. Also, please include your telephone 
number in case our technicians have any additional questions. 

 

 

Do not send your bracket, power cord or microphone unless we ask for these 
items during our telephone conversation. 

 

 

You are responsible for getting the radio safely to us. (We suggest using 
United Parcel Service.) You must pay to ship the radio to us, and we will pay 
to ship the radio back to you. Since we use UPS and they do not ship to Post 
Offices boxes, please provide us with a street address for the return of your 
radio.
