When you get the microphone. Remove the strain relief connector by removing
the two screws and then remove the very small phillips head screw in the side
of the connector and twist the shell a 1/4 turn conterclockwise and slip the
shell back on the cable. You will find that Pin 1 has a yellow wire and it is
the mic audio and connects to Pin 1 of the new 8 pin connector. Pin2 has the
shield connected to it and is ground. It connects to pin 8 on the new
connector. Pin 3 has a black wire and it is the PTT line - It connects to Pin
2 on the new connector. Pin 4 has a red wire and it is the 5 volts to the
elecret element and it connects to Pin 6 in the new connector.

You will need to place jumpers on at least the four lines 1to 1; 8to8; 6to6 &
2to2. These jumpers are on the connector on the back of the Front Panel
Circuit board P1 Mic Config. Connector You can use the standard computer
jumper plugs.
