I want to connect a Yamaha CM500 headset/mike to the rear connectors of the 6500. Can someone advise the best way to do this?

The easiest way is to wire your own headset connector and connect the +5 VDC bias line (Pin 2 on the 8-pin Foster connector) to the mic+ pin (pin 8).0

Tim, Which pin does the bias button in the TX panel power? Andrew0

As noted above, it is pin 2 on the 8-pin Foster connector.0

Is there a foster connector on the rear panel? I don't see one on my 6500. --Arnie W8DU0

The only Foster connector is on the front.1

Richard - did you ever get an answer on how to connect your CM500 to the *rear* panel??0

I hooked the CM500 up to the front connector and connected a Heil mike to the rear. When I asked how the quality of the audio from the CM500 was compared to the Heil, I was told that the Heil sounded much better.0
