I have an IC-229H 2M radio that I am using with a HM 56a microphone. The
radio keys as soon as I turn it on with the microphone connected. First is
this the right mike to use with this radio. Been a few years since I last
used it. The connector has been resoldered but I think I did this to fix a
broken wire. Wiring diagram with wire colors, pin numbers would be most
helpful.Really think it is the right mike and dont really think it is
wired
wrong but both are possibilities, Any other help would also be
appreciated.

Does the "MICE" connection on an Icom radio suppose to go to the shield on
the microphone. That is the way my microphone is wired. I would have thought
the shield is suppose to go to ground. Maybe MICE means mic earth.
