[Elecraft] Heil mics & PSK

[cyr999@extremezone.com]

Ok fellas - I should offer some clarity. I was talking with the Rig Blaster 
folks. They said that some people reported problems and that Heil did not 
disagree. I'm assuming it is in situations where there is an audio out and audio 
in on the back of a rig - and the mic is still hooked up in front.

I have not yet made any hookups or used PSK so I may be creating confusion by my 
ignorance. However, it is my impression that in some setups you can leave the 
mic hooked up to the K2 AND have the PSK hookups connected. Icannot say more 
than that - my question was really generated from what the Mountain West 
(rigblaster) people told me. They did say they had never heard of anyone with an 
Elecraft having any problem. 73/Tim
