As far as I know, Paradynamics is actually Astatic. I would THINK, they'd use the same color codes. But, I believe any radio that doesn't need to have a mic plugged in to receive only needs three wires. Remove the wire from pin 4 and try it.

Hhmmm, that's very strange, actually. The Cobras I have owned and my Strykers don't even need pin 4. And the blue wire as a rule is usually a control wire for channels and such.
I guess we should have asked - what kind of Cobra?
Cobra 19+ or a Cobra 18Plus - usually have power getting sent to their Mic elements - they use Condenser Elements - which require power.
It would explain that squeal.

Ah, yes...
Big help there...
Things you have to be alert about - uses the 858 - so the ghost of "CyberNET" strikes again - the Audio Shield and Hot are swapped to the Cobra lines usual Pin 1 Hot and Pin 2 Shield and Ground are swapped.
Reasons for saying "Ghost" was due to its following of Galaxy's Mic wiring code
