Radio Interface… 

Due to the wide array of radio interfaces for modern amateur radio gear the Headset-To-Radio cable is sold 

separately. The left ear cup has a Switchcraft miniXLR headset port, similar to the industry standard 5-Pin miniXLR on 

professional communications headsets except these have a 6th pin for the second Audio Channel.  While nearly every 

desktop HF radio made for the past twenty years supports Stereo Audio output, this is very important for modern 
high-end Dual-Watch/Dual-Receive transceivers.   You may use the same headset with multiple radios or a new radio 

acquired in the future by ordering an appropriate Headset-To-Radio cable, by simply releasing the locking miniXLR 

terface plug and swapping for another Headset-to-Radio cable.

About our Headset-To-Radio cables… 

Our Headset-To-Radio cables are supplied with a standard 3.5mm headphone plug wired to industry standard stereo 

pin out.  A quality 3.5mm to ¼” adapter is supplied that provides a secure and compact interface to your radio.  If 
you wish to plug the 3.5mm headphone plug into a Monaural radio audio output as on some small mobile rigs, then 

slide the 

drivers.  

The Microphone interface will depend on the particular radio it will be attached to.  Most popular among Microphone 

interface plugs are of course the Foster 8-Pin Mic connector, the RJ-45 8-Pin interface, and the standard XLR Mic 

interface plug for use with radios like the Yaesu FTDX-9000 front panel XLR Mic jack and Flex 6000 Series rear panel 
interface.  We also offer the Headset-To-Radio cable with a Foster 4-Pin Mic connector for TenTec Omni (including 

early Omni, Corsair, Paragon and V/VI/VI-Plus radios) and Orion I (Balanced Mic input) as well as 4-Pin Fos

connector for other HF Amateur Radio gear using either low impedance Dynamic or Electret Condenser Mics.   

 

All radiosport Headset-To-Radio cables utilize Kevlar reinforced 26Ga low capacitance wires with Teflon insulation and 

a rugged outer jacket able to stand up to years of use.  Microphone wiring is via balanced wiring from the Mic to the 

Mic connector.  The radio then determines whether the Mic interface is to be balanced or unbalanced.  The 

Microphone wiring shield is attached only to the shell of the Microphone connector (when it is a metal connector) and 

is isolated from the Headphone common lead (sleeve of the headphone plug) as modern radios have small chokes 
that protect sensitive circuits inside the radio on all wiring internally and therefore each co

Optional accessories… 

We offer a few accessories for use with the RS60CF headset including a rugged Foot Operated PTT Switch with the 

same Kevlar reinforced wires with Teflon insulation and terminated in a (back to the future) RCA Phono Plug.  We also 

offer a Hand Operated PTT Switch equipped with both a Momentary PTT button and a Pu
A supplied Velcro Mounting pad allows temporary fixing to the desk top for convenience.  

While most modern HF desktop radios have returned to using an RCA Phono jack on the rear panel for attaching an 

external PTT Switch some modern rigs still are using a DIN Accessory connector for external PTT Attachment. For 

those rigs we have an adapter from the 5-Pin (TenTec) 7-Pin (ICOM & Kenwood) or 13-Pin DIN (HF/50 and VHF/UHF 

PTT are typically separated on the 13-Pin interface so these adapters have 2 RCA Phono jacks) for ICOM radios.  An
