Making A Wire Hook Contact Connector - Motorola maxtrac 300 User Manual

The operator can also use a regular mic hook as long as it's metal (conductive), it should
work. If the mic is not "on hook" and the scan button is pressed, the display will flash
between the current channel and the scan mode. Ross, WØRCT, leaves the hanger clip on
the mic all the time and simply lays the mic down. An alternative way which may be
simpler, depending the microphone, is to "ground" the metal ring sticking out of the back
of the mic. How this is accomplished, is up to the operator.

Making a wire hook contact connector

By using a piece of wire, inserted into the notch, it still allows the use of the mic holder.
In the above case, the contact wire is not soldered. This was my first attempt. Later I
soldered it, inserted it firmly into the notch and it held without falling out. This is shown
below.
