I can find many examples of how to wire the push to talk switch to a radio (through the Mic jack).
I need to wire radios to an audio panel. The radios have three pins; "Mic," "Mic return," and "Mic key." The audio panel has two pins to connect to the radios; "Mic" and "Mic key." The audio panel has three pins to connect to the Mic jacks; "Mic," "Mic return," and "Mic key." The diagram describing audio panel to Mic jack connection is exactly the same as a standard radio to Mic jack, so no problem.
The problem is connecting the radios to the audio panel. The audio panel diagram shows only two wires; "Mic" and "Mic key." The radio diagram shows three wires; "Mic," "Mic return," and "Mic key." Right now I am planning to connect the "Mic return" from the radio to the shield ground on the audio panel. Anyone know if this is correct?
