[ICOM] IC-207H Mike Extension Cable

[Michael P. Olbrisch]

I have rewired mics using the RJ-45 connector kit - so the connectors are
correct.  I have never tried using a CAT-5 cable as an extension - but I do
not see a reason WHY it should not work.  Just be sure you get a straight
cable - not a cross-over cable.
