8 pin mic connector needed

Gary Smith
I've got a nice old Heil mic but it has the 4 pin mic connector that
fits TenTec. I need a plug to fit the K3 but it's not sold at Radio
Shack. I understand Mouser & Digikey can supply these 8 pin plugs but
perhaps someone here has one excess to their needs & I can help
lighten their surplus?

Off list please,

Thanks

And that's the shop they looked it up for me at...

Right between Chesters Barbecue & Lee's Kiddyland...

I'm going back tomorrow to have a chat.

Thanks!

Dave,

That's amazing. I have tried four different Radio Shacks and nobody
there at any of them had heard of one and I scoured the shelves and
the pull out drawers where I found the 4 pin variety residing.

I will give them their part number and special order it. My local
shop looked it up on their computer while I waited (they don't seem
to offer their catalogs for the customer to peruse any more) and he
said they had no such thing in their database. I took him at his word
as he had as much grey hair as me & looke like an old timer there.

Doesn't say much for the employees at RS or me either I guess, I
should have double checked on them anyway.

Thanks!

Go back to Radio Shack and tell them you need a model #274-025 plug.

The Radio Shacks in Groton and New London both should have them in stock.
