Microphone needed
 

I need a microphone for an Icom IC-229H 2m mobile rig. I don't need a
fancy mike, just one with push to talk will be fine. The mic cable
should have a circular female connector with seven pins in an outside
circle and one pin in the center.

I can be reached at 651-426-4144 or

Thanks

Henry, might I suggest looking for 'Microphone Wiring' on the internet. The majority of mics, can be rewired as need be. The connector you mentioned is probably the one common on Yaesu mic cables. [a standard 8-pin female connector, with a 'locator notch' at the 6 o'clock position]. I believe there is a website listing possible DIRECT interchanges of mics. [IE: a ICOM mic may actually work on a Kenwood. Otherwise rewiring usually solves the problem]. Check with your local Amateur Radio Club, or sales outlet for assistance, if you're 'technically challenged'. Forget DIRECT interchange, if mic has fancy features.
