Correct. Also referred to as "ring". >The cable for the mic I got from Ken has white, red, black, and braid. I >had thought tip would be white, red would be body / back, black would be >middle / "sleeve". The "standard" color code for mics of this type is white=audio, red=PTT, black=PTT return (ground), braid=audio return (shield). (Side note: mics intended for the CB market tended to vary widely from this standard). Try it like so: white - tip red - sleeve black and braid - body Report back with your reults. 73 -Jim -- Jim Shorney -->.<--Put complaints in this box jshorney (at) inebraska.com Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, NE, USA EN10ps http://incolor.inetnebr.com/jshorney/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Submissions: [email protected] Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - unsubscribe drakelist in body Hopelessly Lost: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - help in body of message Zerobeat Web Page: www.zerobeat.net - sponsored by www.tlchost.net ----------------------------------------------------------------------
