i picked up a galaxy desk mic. new on the market, looks like the old sadelta, any way i am wanting to put this on a 5 pin 2000 cobra. they had a wiring dealie on the paper but the wiring color code is off and it is only 4 wire. i know some of the old 2000, you had to trun a jumper if you were puttin a 4 wire mic on it, would like to have some help on this if there is anyone familior with this deal, in all t1hanks for taking up your time..

look at the mic connector and you will see small numbers by each pin receptacle.
here's the wiring.
1-audio (the wire with the shield around it)
2-sheild (the one around the audio wire)
3-receive
4-ground or not used
5-transmit |

Dinker1,
The Stock wiring for the Cobra 2000 5- Pin is:
PIN #1 ~ AUDIO
PIN #2 ~ SHIELD
PIN #3 ~ RECEIVE
PIN #4 ~ Sw Wire
PIN #5 ~ TRANSMIT
If it is a Sadelta:
Bravo Plus, Echomaster+, Echomaster Pro, ME-3, or MB-4/R Beep Mic the wiring/color for it should be:
PIN #1 ~ WHITE / AUDIO
PIN #2 ~ N/C
PIN #3 ~ GREEN / RECEIVE
PIN #4 ~ SHIELD
PIN #5 ~ BROWN / TRANSMIT
Hope this helps,
Lon

maybe we need some clarification here.
i have always been of the mindset that the shield braid that is wrapped around the audio lead should be connected to pin#2.
the one right next to the audio lead.
on a D104 this would mean that the blue wire goes to pin#4.
i have no hard data as to why i do it this way, its just always worked and my mics dont squeal.
if anyone has reasons why i should wire these the other way, please post them here. |

I agree Kid Vicious. Pin 2 is the microphone audio ground, and pin 4 is the switching ground.
Unless the microphone manufacturer recommends something else that's what I'd do. |
