Icom: 746Pro Mic Jack right angle

[N9JIG]

Does anyone have a line on an extension for the IC-746 Pro front panel mic connector with a right angle on the radio end? (This is the 8-pin round mic connector.)



I have my radio rack mounted and the mic connector sticks out a little too far so the door won't close when not in use. I need an extension anyway and to kill two birds with one stone an extension with a right angle plug would be ideal.


I have looked on the net and have not found one.

I googled "right angle 8-pin mic plug".

Also, the CEA-CBC8RC at Ken's Electronics may be a better choice since you can change the indexing of the plug relative to the socket.

I saw the plug, but I really stink at soldering. I was hoping to get a pre-made cable so at least I know it will work...


I reached out to Heil, and am awaiting their response. It is actually a Heil mic that I have anyway.



Thanks!
