Does any body know if a 6 pin to 4 pin adaptor for a ranger would work similar on this radio? Just bought this radio and I would like to use a noise cancelling mic for mobile road conditions. Thanks in advance.
Absolutely be careful - I was wiring a mic and didn't see a stray wire bridging two pins and I blew a trace right off the board near the front of the radio. I was able to bridge the trace and fix the radio but 1 sec of sloppiness caused 1 hour of work.
Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
