Notes
For use with a stereo intercom, connect the left and right channels to
their respective positions. For monaural operation, connect pins 3 &
4 together to the tip of the existing phone jack.
Do not use excessive force or bend the installed connector. This may
damage or break internal solder joints.
If the boom microphone works on radio transmit but not through the
intercom, check pin 6. It may be incorrectly wired to the PTT seg
-
ment of the microphone jack.
The wires connecting pins 3 & 4 and pins 5 & 6 are shielded, twisted
pairs with a black wire shield termination exiting each pair. If existing
wiring is not shielded, connect shields to existing audio wiring
shields, or connect shield from Comm L and Comm R wire pair to
audio ground.
