I have found that the 8 pin connector even when wired per the manual is
more susceptible to RFI than the 1/4" rear connection for whatever reason.
Even though this is a balanced input it will work just fine with and
unbalanced microphone provided that the "mike boost" is checked in the menu.
I
have used an inexpensive Radio Shack mike with a long cable with a standard
1/4" plug into the rear input with satisfactory results. Currently using a
Heil GM5 (unbalanced) with PTT switch wired with a 1/4" plug for the mike
connections and the PTT conductors terminating with a male RCA to the PTT
RCA on the back panel. Works fine. Routinely receive unsolicited commentary
audio reports.
