Microphone Connections
Welcome, this page discribes microphone wiring connections for most UK and foreign radios. Most U.S. radios are “Code Type 2″, so if the radio you want to wire a mic up for is not mentioned here, be sure to try out “Code Type 2″. If you know of any other radio / microphone wire schemes that are not mentioned here, please send me a E-Mail to the address at the bottom of the screen.
To Use this Chart: Look up your radio. To the left is a “Type” number. Look further down the Chart to CODE section. Find your number. This is your radio’s mic wiring. Further down the Chart are a few microphone’s and their wiring pinouts. Remember that the Shield wire is most alway’s wrapped around the Audio wire.

Thank you for publishing this most comprehensive list.
Jim aka Long Distance Operator – Searcy, Ar
The Turner 3 wire if used on a 2510 would you connect the red and shield together as there is no recieve connection on the 2510.
i have a Trinidad 2 base 23 channel and im trying to wire a cobra hand held mic to it.. Any one have a diagram for this novice to work with.. The mic has 4 female holes and it plugs into the base but there is no sound until keyed then i hear sound.. It does not transmit.. any help would be greatly appreciated.. email me at gary_dube36@yahoo.com.. Thanx Gary
