Hi Rich,
    I use Heil Prosets here for both my Yaesu rig and my K2 and they work
really well with the K2.    One caveat for mobile operation I guess - part
of why I like the headset is that it blocks surrounding sound a bit - that
might not be a feature on the highway...   They make a Pro-micro boomset
that might be a better choice for not blocking surrounding sound and be a
little lighter.    I'm partial to the HC-4 "DX" element for giving a tad
more punch via emphasizing the highs a bit - makes me sound a little like
Ross Perot and helps with the pileups - HAR HAR...   Their HC-5 element is
also very effective.
