Wiring a 6-wire D104 microphone to a Ranger 2985 DX requires connecting the wires in the correct order and configuration. The Ranger 2985 DX has an 8-pin modular plug, and the D104 microphone has a 6-pin modular plug. Here's one way to wire the D104 microphone to the Ranger 2985 DX:

1. Connect the red wire from the D104 to the 8-pin modular plug's pin 4 (PTT - Push-To-Talk).
2. Connect the black wire from the D104 to the 8-pin modular plug's pin 5 (Ground).
3. Connect the white wire from the D104 to the 8-pin modular plug's pin 6 (MIC + Audio).
4. Connect the blue wire from the D104 to the 8-pin modular plug's pin 7 (Receive Audio)
5. Connect the green wire from the D104 to the 8-pin modular plug pin 8 (Transmit Audio)
6. Connect the yellow wire from the D104 to the 8-pin modular plug's pin 3 (UP-Down).

It's important to double-check the wiring configuration with the user manual of the Ranger 2985 DX and the D104 microphone. Some manufacturers have different wiring configurations and it's important to match the wiring accordingly to avoid any damage to the device. It's also worth noting that if you are not comfortable with the wiring process, it's best to consult with a professional technician or a radio expert.

You do realize you need a ham radio license to use this ?If you are on the upper ham bands you better have a license or they will come and get you .Look at the the dial that has 1 - 7 on it. Now take the owners manual and look at the diagram of the knob . It should say something about frequencies and the frequency you need to operate on is from 26.965 to 27.405 MHZ .
