Looking for ac plug pinout on Lafayette Comstat 23 Mark VI

[Woody-202]

Hello all. I'm looking for octal plug pinout wiring on a Comstat 23 Mark VI. If you do, and could let me know, I'd appreciate it -

Tnx!

Woody

The Comstat 23, 25A, 25B, 35, HB400/25A, GTX2300, GTX5000 all take the same 8-pin octal AC cord.

Short pins 4 an 5 pins together. AC Leads go to pins 2 and 3.

Caution: Make sure the AC cord is not plugged in while you're plugging in the octal socket. While you're rotating the octal socket to engage the key, the long pins are liable to hit wrong connections. Many of these radios had major burn out damage because of this.

Fantastic! Thanks - Woody

I thought the Comstat 19, 23 mark V and 23 mark VI were the same and the others were wired differently??? Maybe I was wrong.

Fantastic! Thanks - Woody

I was wrong. I just looked at the schematic in Sam's 47 and the Mark VI is different than the others! Give me a few minutes and I'll scan that connector.

I’m glad you checked back! Thanks go to Unit 75's comment as I decided to check my old Sam’s books. Your radio is listed in book 47 if you need any other help.

Yes. I figured I'd check one more time... before plugging it in. I have CB47 on the way as well.

I just made a plug for myself but when I turn on the radio it screeches instead of static would anyone happen to know the cause and how to fix it?

that could be the mic being wired incorrectly.
try unplugging the mic and turn the radio on.
if the squeal goes away, it's the mic.
