SVA Question

[wb0wao]

I picked up a SVA recently - no mic/speaker/power cord. Have a couple of questions....

1. The power cord I know uses a 4 pin Molex (Disk Drive Type) so no problem there. I will be using it at the present time in a desktop environment, so I will want the lights/charging function active all the time. Am I correct in assuming that the GRN/YEL/RED should all go to my +12VDC supply?

2. I have several hand/desk mics that I have used with MaxTracs/GM300 radios. In looking at parts numbers, I would assume that these will work (at least the hand mics should). Is this correct?

3. As to the speaker, I don't have the 12w one with the DB-25 connector on it. Would a "standard" Moto speaker (6w type) work? Of course I would attach the proper connector.

TNX!

Hi Dennis,

I can't speak for your speaker dilemma, but I can tell you the standard GM300/MaxTrac type microphone will work with the SVA just fine.

1 yes


2 yes

3 No. The SVA audio section does not have enough to power the speaker on its own. best bet is to look here on Ebay for the correct speaker.

Usually they wind up separate, as a 12W amplified 4" speaker with a DB25 on the end.
