John
I had a similar problem with my mobile mic.
Where the cable comes out of the mike plug,
I put several layers of heat shrink tubing to
make a boot of sorts. The inner tubing piece
was longest, thenext a bit shorter, and the last
shorter yet. This made a supportive but
flexible boot on the cable and prevented a
lot of trouble. I did not heat treat the shrink
tubing, but left it as it came from the box.

I just recovered from the wild goose chase instigated by a parted
ptt
connection within the RS mike plug which I installed on the old Icom
VHF mike which
I've been using quite effectively on K2/100 5087. Can anyone
recommend
another plug which has a more extended spring or flexible tube to
help isolate the
plug connections from cord-flexing?
