I need help on how to wire an old push to talk desk mic and use it for a talk back mic. this was probably an old CB or Ham radio mic in its day. it is 3 wire. Thanks in advance!

If you are plugging it into an XLR input, open it up, find out which two wires come from the mic capsule - they go to pins 2 and 3 and the PTT hopefully has c/o contacts. You wire those so that fingers off closed contacts short out 2 and 3, Make sure phantom power is off.
 
If I did a cross post I apologize, just joined and not up to speed. Rob, thank you very much for your expertise and help!
