I am trying to incorporate a mobile CB Midland 13-857 to my motorcyle, I need to know how to add a circuit to the input (mic) so I can use a head set. I can hear and currently use the hand mic when riding... (the head set came from a computer with two jacks, one for speaker and one for mic).... can it be done? Can anyone help? thanks Ken It can be done. You need do: 1) match the pin wiring 2) match the microphone impedances (although this may not be important) 3) match the gain of the microphones with an attenuator or amplifier. 4) supply power to the computer microphone if it is an electret type. You will need to get the microphone connector wiring from the manual or from opening the microphone. If your computer microphone is electret, it will need 3 to 12 volts of DC to operate the element. I don't know if CB manfacturers put a voltage like this on the microphone connector. Anyway, it is not straightforward, but it can be done. I did it for my Midland 2 meter rig. I embeded a speaker and tiny electret mic in the foam of my helmet. Andy |
