Well I've looked at the Turner Mic Wiring Guide and it doesnt include the GE Super Base. Hoping someone here can help me out with the color wire and on which pin it goes on... The Turner +2 has 4 wire: Red, Black, Shield, and White. Thanks in advance... Dan
 

The 6 wire (CS-1) was mostly for Johnson radios
And a lot of Uniden-built SSB radios with 5-pin mike sockets. Biggest feature of the six-wire was a separate ground for audio and keying. That's what made the 4-pin Uniden SSB radio change to a 5-pin, the need to separate two ground circuits.

And sometime back I posted a hack to reduce feedback squeal in the AM transmit audio of the 4-pin Uniden 40-channel SSB radios. Using just 4 pins made those radios vulnerable to this.

The Superbase has only 4 pins, so you should be good to go.
