TK-690 remote mic pin out

Post by N3CHU »

Hi all, would anyone have the pin out to connect a remote mic from one of the connectors on the back of the radio?. The mic cord on the front of the radio just dont last at all and I would like to put a 630 mike or maybe a Mot. mic on useing a telephone jack sort of set up. Even the pin out from the back of the control head would be nice (the schematic is very hard to read) Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Davie n 3 c h u at atlanticbb dot net

Has anyone emailed you this info? If not, I'll get the info from the service manual.

Thanks,

No emails yet, But any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated. I,m new to the 690 and have made a couple cap mods to the reciever but havent messed with the plug on the back. There might need to be changes in the software but not sure. Thank you Jason. Davie n 3 c h u at atlanticbb dot net
