Silvio -

The color of conductors are consistently assigned to a specific "pin" on a
microphone connector. I have seen identical microphones very, due to
different cable sub-contract suppliers.

The color codes are not shown in the Icom SM-8 manual, just the pin
assignments (for various radios)

The SM-8 does have an internal pre-amplifier, powered from the Icom
transceivers (at the mic connector). A VOM and wire tracing may be the best
approach
