V6 mic connector - compatibility
Iz Oss Properly wired it it is compatible with any rig that supports an electret type microphone.? These have an internal FET that needs a small voltage and possibly a DC isolating capacitor (capacitor need depends on circuit layout).? If one wants to use a standard Icom, Yaseu, etc. microphone with a uBITX? then you need to know the circuit layout of that unit and adapt your microphone to that layout.? Dynamic or crystal microphones may not provide sufficient signal output to drive an input that is designed for an electret microphone.? Dynamic microphones may also require an isolating capacitor to block DC? from the microphone and a resistor to adjust microphone DC bias to what it would be if an electret microphone were used.? Arv?

It is wired with a 3.5 mm audio jack. The tip is mic, the ring is ptt and the sleeve is ground. It was kept this way so you can use regular audio cables to the computer. On Mon 23 Dec, 2019, 10:49 PM Arv Evans, <arvid.evans@...> wrote:

If it's wired the same way as the V5 with the 'official' cabinet, my Elecraft KX2 microphone worked just peachy on my V3 (which I upgraded to a V5 by just swapping the main board and Raduino). I would expect it to work on my V6, but I haven't tried it yet.? The up/down buttons on the top of the Elecraft mic, though, don't do anything useful (I wouldn't expect them to). But it sure made a swell mic for the V3/V5, better than trying to homebrew something with the mic element, etc., that came in the kit. 73, -- Dave, N8SBE
