Does anyone know where you can source the weird 5 pin johnson mic plugs ?
The pins are spike tipped. I have been looking and coming up with a blank.
I have a couple of johnson 250's and i need those mic plugs.
Are they out of production ?

Good luck
 
If memory serves, this is the right one.

This radio has six-wire mike cord. On a 5-pin plug? The metal shell of the plug is the ground connection for the receive speaker, but only when the ring is clicked into place. Just plugging it into the jack with the ring loose may or may not work every time.
