Jeff, Is there any chance that you have an MC-60A instead of the MC-60? They are not the same. If so, I suggest you set the mic amp switch to OUT and disconnect the wire on pin 5 inside the microphone. If you need the mic preamp either use batteries in the mic or connect the wire that was originally connected to pin 5 onto pin 6 (Note that the mic preamp will no longer work with a Kenwood transceiver).
