did mother ever make a mic pigtail for spectras and such?
something a foot or 3 long that one could bulkhead mount for the mic to plug into? and the other end plug into the a9/w9/x9000/maratrac head?
im looking to flush mount my w9 and maratrac heads and would like to have the mics plug into the side of what ever i build for a cabinet/chassis for in the van

Not factory, no. Plenty of people have rolled their own using sacrificed mic cords though.

Fair warning: if you try to make your own, USE CRIMP PIN CONNECTORS. The wire used in Spectra mic cords has plastic thread interwoven with the copper that makes it virtually impossible to solder.
