Need some advice on the proper adapter. I bought a couple CB's, a Cobra 18 WX ST and a Radio Shack TRC-446 at a yard sale for $3.00 each. They were pretty grubby so I was wiping them down with sanitizing wipes. When I removed the microphone on the TRC-446 the part that goes inside the radio itself separated. Apparently it had a break and the 6 metal pins separated from the part that goes inside the radio(see picture).
I was able to re assemble it(not tested yet) and super glued it back together. If it works cool, as the hand mike has channel buttons on it.
Now what my problem is, is that it is a 6 pin and I want to adapt it to a more common 4 pin connection. Looking on the net and on the auction site, there is to many labels. For example on **Non Sponsor** sells three different 6 to 4 pin adapters. This is how each one is labeled.

I asked **Non Sponsor** which would work and he was not for sure as he wasn't familiar with the TRC-446 radio. To me all of the above mentioned adapters look like the one I need but I am ignorant on the subject.
I just tried looking to upload a picture but don't see the button for it so I will describe the pin locations. Facing the end, at 12 O'clock is the U alignment depression. At 1 O'clock is the #1 pin. At about 4 O'clock is the #2 pin. At 6 O'clock is the #3 pin. At 7 O'clock is the #4 pin. At 11 O'clock is the #5 pin and in the center is the #6 pin.
