I have a Shure Brothers Model 559853 microphone that looks very similar to the Shure 444. I assume this mic was made specifically for RCA since their initials are on the base. I'm trying to connect it to my Ten Tec 580 Delta HF transceiver. It keys the transmitter OK but can't seem to get any audio out of it. Does anyone have a wiring diagram for this mic? There are four leads in the mic cable: White, Black, Green, and Red.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
