yes any johnson mike will wire up to it with the proper plug. you will have to go to a turner mike wireing booklet to get the wire code. should be easy to find. 73s midnight special
I have three of those old Johnson desk mics. Were these original designs by Johnson or were these made by someone else (like Turner) for Johnson? I've read that they were knock offs of the Turner +2. Does anyone know with certainty?
I have always been partial to the Turners. That said, the Johnson desk mic does not have the output of a Turner +3 or a Super Side Kick, but it does have a good quality tone. My Johnsons are all wired for 5 pin din plug Realistic (Radio Shack) radios. I used one for a Realistic TRC 216 40 channel walkie talkie that I hooked up as a base and was amazed at how good that pairing sounded.
Is the Johnson desk mic a knock off of any particular Turner model? I have read on blogs that it was a knock off of the +2 base mic, but have not been able to verify that via someone knowledgeable.
