Hello/Lon-
I have an old TUG 8 with 4 wires. Trying to get it hooked to a 5 pin Madison.
I have read the previous thread down below, but can't seem to get any audio. I switched the head/element out with another and it works fine,... I keyed the radio with it but still no audio,... any suggestions?
Thanks
XLAXX

Xlaxx,

Astatic TUG-8 to Uniden Madison (858) should be:

PIN #1 ~ SHIELD
PIN #2 ~ WHITE
PIN #3 ~ RED
PIN #4 ~ BLACK
Electronic

If that does not work you can have a broken wire somewhere or the piano switch's might need cleaning or a wire has come loose where they hook into the Mic Head Pin in the Neck / Stand.

Or the electronic switch can be bad.

Check to make sure a wire has not broken loose from any of the solder connections.

The easiest way to find the problem is to completely dis-assemble it, resolder all connections and wires and check & clean & test everything with a volt/ohm meter before re-assembly.

808-
Thanks for the reply.

The Madison is a 5 pin rig.

The TUG 8 is a 4 wire mic.

I think I need to put a jumper in there somewhere?,....
Looks like I might have to pull the TUG 8 guts out for it to work.
