Cobra 4 pin to cpi 2000 4 pin ?

[Crambone]

Can anyone tell me what the adapter wiring would be? I have a cobra 4 pin mike and want to make an adapter to cpi 2000.

Thanks Andrew

From this thread: https://www.worldwidedx.com/threads/cpi-2000-mic-wiring.29842/

CPI 2000 mic wiring:

Pin 1 is Audio
Pin 2 is Ground
Pin 3 is TX PTT
Pin 4 is TX PTT return

Connect pins 3 and 4 through the PTT switch to make the radio transmit.

Which, I think, in D104 T-UG8 four wire mic wire colors would be:
Pin 1 Audio
Pin 2 Shield & Blue
Pin 3 Red
Pin 4 Black

Then set the D104 to relay keying (the E/R switch to R).

That's based on the diagrams from this site:

I've never actually tried this, so proceed at your own risk. Not responsible if your radio explodes or opens a portal to an alternate dimension, etc.

4 pin cobra should be the same as the astatic. I'm pretty sure...

Any time that kind of radio came through here we just swapped pins 1 and 2, then jumpered 1 to 4. Made the radio work with a mike wired for 4-pin Cobra.

Less messy than adapters.
