Can anybody help me with an old Turner JM+2U ???

[Relic Hunter]

I have an old Turner JM+2U from when I was a kid. This weekend past I picked up an old "new in box" Midland 77-155 CB at a garage sale and was wondering how the wires are supposed to be set up in the mic connector. Actually, I don't even know if I can use it on there at all 'cause the CB has a "Mic Gain" knob on it. Does that do the same as a powermic? Should I bother installing the mic?



Sorry if the questions seem a little stupid, but I haven't touched a CB since only a few years after they went to 40 channels!



Thanks for any help.

Re: Mike gain

The mike gain actually REDUCES the level not increases it, all radios will benifit from a power mike.
