Hi Lee, I did exactly what you're thinking about doing. Instead of using the bias box as-is, I rewired the line side of it to use the 8 pin MIC connector. It works fine this way. You can double-side tape the bias box to the underside of a shelf or next to the radio.
I have the Goldline and external speakers connected to the rear panel, leaving the front panel the only convenient place for the CM500. This arrangement works quite well. 73, matt W6NIA On Mon, 13 Jan 2014 14:43:50 -0800 (PST), you wrote: >I got some CM500 headphones/mike combo from Xmas. Yea me.
