  1. hi, im looking to modify this style of radio, RT24, to use an external microphone, any ideas how best to wire/solder to the board?
    im currently trying to solder the connections for a 3.5mm audio jack to the board as to use a more conventional style headphone jack, ive seen they do a 3.5mm conversion kit from the manufacturer but is pricey at almost £13.
    so far ive got the audio to both earphones working through the jack but as of yet am unsuccessful in wiring in for the mic?
    any information you may know would be helpful
    thanks
