I need the microphone holder which attaches to the base of a md 1 microphone - lost mine.

Question edited for correct spelling of Yaesu and correct forming of model number.

There is a service manual here, but you would be better to take to a service centre unless you are very skilled with electronics. It has a Lithium backup battery, and I think I would change that at the outset.

The microphone should plug into the side connection.

You'll probsbly find the cardioid unit is faulty in they mic, Ive had this happen before. Being a capacitor type device it can take minutes to hours to occur sometimes.

At transceiver:
Pin 1: ground/PTT common
Pin 2: mic +
Pin 3: PTT NO
Pin 4: not used

At the mic, I think:
Pin 1: shld&blue
Pin 2: white
Pin 3: red
Pin 4: black

This would require a special cable to work. The mic is MONOAURAL with BALANCED output and the camera is STEREO input. This means a special cable is needed and you would probably have to make it yourself as I haven't seen one on the market.Pin 2 of the XLR of the mic would go to BOTH the tip and ring of the plug into the camera. Both pins 1 and 3 of the XLR at the mic would tie to the sleeve of the plug to the camera. If you tried an XLR to 1/8 adapter, no audio would be heard other than from the buillt in mic.

Hi,

Analysis- The call can gear very well - indicates that the speakers / head phones are working fine and the audio drivers are working well
The called person doesnt hear any thing - it indicates that the caller is not able to transmit sound. This can be a microphone related issue. It can also be skype settings issue.

Please answer following questions to analyze the issue better

1. has this ever worked before?
2. Have you tried using the microphone for some other application like recording some audio?
3. Have you tried audio / video calls using some other chat program like gtalk?
4. Are u using any external microphone attached to a head set or is it the laptops inbuilt microphone?

The Peavey studio pro shock mount for that mic is $50.00. Go to a guitar center and they may have what you are looking for if you don't want the shock mount holder. hope this helps.

Hi,

This must be the right pinning

Pin 1 = shield / blue
Pin 2 = white
Pin 3 = red
Pin 4 = black

good luck,
Gerard

open the radio and visually look at microphone wiring on the yaesu you should be able to wire mic accordingly.
