Hi, all.

Anthony gave me an idea about a foot switch possibility that might be worth
pursuing, at least until I can find something bigger and bulkier that won't
slide around.

In my junk box, I found an old GE foot switch that I used to use to run my
old A P H four-track tape recorder/player.

The plug on it is a small phono plug, so I'd have to get an adapter to fit
the larger jack on the ICM mic, but might that work?

Has anyone done something like this, or would that particular type of foot
switch not be adequate for the job.

Also,  I need to know whether mic foot switches typically use two-conductor
plugs.

It appears that the GE one is a two-conductor plug, but I can't tell if the
jack on the ICM mic is two or three conductor.

Thanks for any advice you guys can give.
