Orion II Loose Mic Connector Shell

From the Ten-Tec Reflector January 6, 2006

The ORION II is our first transceiver to use an 8 pin mike connector. It is rigidly mounted to a large circuit board behind the decorative front panel. The barrel serves no purpose but to gently hold your mike from being inadvertently pulled off the rig. This was possible because all electrical connections including grounds and RF shields are provided by the 8 pins. There is no reason for concern if you notice the barrel to be slightly loose or floating.
