Hi Bob,

Oh, OK, thanks, I just never thought of that. Some years ago, KW designed
their desk mike so that you could unplug the rig cord from the base and
connect directly to the mike head for hand held operation. You had to be
careful because you could put the connector on the mike end two different
ways, one for Hi z and the other way for Lo z

Hi William,

It can be done, the flexible cable with the 8 pin and RJ45 connector  plugs
into the mic and the cable which is permanently connected to the mic base
with the 8 pin plug plugs into the radio. The problem was, the mic would
still work but not the scan feature hi hi.
I would have thought that having the flexible cable would be better coming
from the mic rather than the stand so you could separate the mic from the
base giving you more flexibility to operate.


Best Regards,

Bob VK4CPM
