5.  The wires must now be soldered to the pins as indicated in the above wiring tables. 

If a vise or clamping tool is available it should be used to hold the pin receptacle 
body during the soldering operation, so that both hands are free to perform the 
soldering. If a vise or clamping tool is not available, the pin receptacle body can 
be held in a stationary position by inserting it into the microphone jack on the 
front panel. The numbers of the microphone plug are shown in Fig. 3, as viewed 
from the back of the plug. Before soldering the wire to the pins, pre-tin the wire 
receptacle of each pin of the plug.

6.  Be sure that the housing and the knurled ring of Figure 2 are pushed back onto the 

microphone cable before starting to solder. If the washer is not captive to the pin 
receptacle body, make sure that it is placed on the threaded portion of the pin 
receptacle body before soldering. 

 
7.  If the microphone jack is used to hold the pin receptacle during soldering 

operation, best results are obtained when the connections to pin 1 and 3 are made 
first and then the connections to pins 2 and 4. Use a minimum amount of 
soldering and be careful to prevent excessive solder accumulation on pins, which 
could cause a short between the pin and the microphone plug housing. 

 
8.  When all soldering connections to the pins of the microphone are completed, push 

the knurled ring and the housing forward and screw the housing onto the threaded 
portion of the pin receptacle body. Note the location of the screw clearance hole 
in the plug housing with respect to the threaded hole in the pin receptacle body. 
When the housing is completely threaded into the pin receptacle body, a final 
fraction of a turn either clockwise or counterclockwise may be required to align 
the screw hole with the threaded hole in the pin receptacle body. When these are 
aligned, the retaining screw is then screwed into place to secure the housing to the 
pin receptacle body.

9.  The two cable clamp retainer screws should now be tightened to secure the 

housing to the microphone cord. If the cutting directions have been carefully 
followed, the cable clamp should secure to the insulation jacket of the microphone 
cable. 

 
10. Upon completion of the microphone plug wiring, connect and secure the 

microphone plug in the transceiver. 

MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT

This transceiver is specifically designed for the environment encountered in mobile 

installations. The use of all solid state circuitry and its light weight result in high 
reliability. Should a failure occur, however, replace parts only with identical parts. Do 
not substitute. 
 
 

NOTE 

If the performance described in the OPERATION section is not 
obtained, review the operating instructions to insure that proper 
procedures were followed. 

FCC WARNING 

All transmitter adjustments other than those provided on front 
panel by the manufacturer must be made by or under the 
supervision of the holder of an FCC issued general radio 
telephone operator’s license.
