Mic Questions

[KD8JUM]

Hello,

I am in search of a reasonably priced & quality made Yaesu MH-36B6J DTMF Mic for my 2600-M.
The shield on the Mic cord has begun to crack apart, so I am searching for a replacement.

Thanks and 73,

Why not change the cord? Saves a buncha $$

I suppose the next question is where could someone purchase a "Mic-cord" for the Yaesu (MH-36B6J DTMF Mic) 2600-M Radio? And one that is a direct plug-&-play setup.


Thanks, KD8JUM (Sam)

IF the cable is no longer available, then a 6-wire coiled cord (eBay, Internet sales, Amatuer radio/land mobile/CB retail stores/shops)
can be used.

Quanzhou Nanan Chicom Electron Co., Ltd. in China will sell you 10 microphones (minimum order) !!
My experience is that some of these may be dead/rejects from mfg. -- so you may have to repair it -- after you get it

In my humble opinion (IMHO), starting with a coil cord and adding your own connectors might be a lot to expect in terms of cost. A good modular tool ( not usually that one in the famous over-the-counter 'shack' ) can cost between $50.00 and $125.00. Connectors are usually pretty inexpensive, but there are many designed for solid wire- usually the RJ-45 is used for "Cat5" or "Cat6" and not the best for stranded wire. Getting the stripped wire into the connector properly for good strain relief can be a humbling experience. Try Yaesu/Vertex/Motorola first. 73
