Desktop mic for KG-1000G

[jkdallas]

I am looking for a desktop mic for the KG-1000G.  The Wouxun website has a desktop mic shown but it seems to be backordered. Has anyone seen one of these available?

It looks suspiciously like the Motorola PMMN4098A: https://www.radiotronics.us/motorola-pmmn4098

Also, does anyone have the pinout details for the KG-1000G microphone connector?  If I knew the pinout, I could make a short ethernet patch cord with the jumpers to work with the Motorola, or other mics.

It's a new item so not available yet.

I received the 005 last week. It is absolutely horrible! 
If you speak any further than about 8 inches you can barely be heard. (Yes the "gain" on the back of the mic is all the way up)
The handheld mic sounds far better!

I messaged Buy2Way and they tested and found the same issue.
 

I'd avoid this for the 1000g  until a fix is announced... if ever.

Oh great.  I just got mine from BTWR. Rrrrrr!

Be sure to compare how it sounds with someone on the far end. I expect your results will be the same.
(I expect a desk mic to  sound better than a stock handheld and not worse!)
Assuming it sounds as unimpressively as mine I'd start that return process sooner rather than later.

....I'm also getting a bit of a runaround with returning it.
No way will I be out for shipping and a restocking fee. 
Hoping they respond positively and refund my entire purchase price.
If not I will keep the mic and fix it.

John,

Did you ever get the Motorola mic to work with the KG-1000g ?  If so, would you provide details?

Thanks - Nick

You should checkout Klein Electronics. I'm not sure if the pinouts are correct.
