ok i Game a lot i am a nerd and i have this nice head set I started making an adapter for my Kenwood but it is not working...
I have gotten the little tin can condenser mic element working before using the +8v out of the radio that's what i am using in an old Turner mic ...

when i test the mic plug i get a dead short on the center and tip i did have a 1uf cap on the mic input as DC blocking what am i not getting here?

i have a little test jig here but maybe i don't understand the pin out for the mic?
 

ok i think i got it working my setup is strange i have to have the head phone jack plunged in i don't know why?? must be completing some circuit nothing is sanded over here LOL
