[Yaesu] Heil phones for 857D?

[Dr. Gerald N. Johnson]

There isn't any receive audio on the microphone connector. Heil's 
dealers show the AD-1YM adapts the 6 series headsets to the 857. It may 
be that the headset has separate cables for mic and hedphones and some 
illustrations show the 1/4" jack is for the foot switch but nothing 
shows specific to the 857 that I can find.

PTT is available on the 6 pin mini din data connector on the back. 
Mouser sells 6 pin mini din cables with one connector and the other bare 
or that's the CT-39A Yaesu data/packet cable.
