[Icom] IC-V8 mic connector

[Mike Miller]

Thanks Jack,

I was shown one of the Icom mics and it only had two conductors 
for the speaker. The description of the Icom mic options in the 
owners manual indicates that some might use more for remote 
control functions. Too many functions on too few connectors and 
too little documentation. I suppose if they provided 
documentation, they might sell fewer accessories like cloning 
and programming cables.
