Microphone Cord Termination

Caution: When wiring the connector, do not

use the connector body for any electrical

connections. A common mistake is to use

the connector body as an audio ground. The

connector body is already used as an RF

ground on VHF models and no other use is

permitted.

Caution!
Do not allow the shield wire to touch any
metal part of the connector shell.
The shield wire is the antenna on VHF
