[Elecraft] MH2 Microphone Discontinued

[Mike Warner]

Hello All,
After leaving the Elecraft booth at Dayton with my K2/100/SSB/ATU 
(SN-004935), DL-1, BL-1 in hand with the understanding that the Heil 
hand mic was discontinued, I stopped at the  Heil booth and asked them 
what might work. There I was told that a mic with the Icom element and a 
Kenwood connector will work. Also they confirmed that the MH2 was no 
longer available.

 I ended up purchasing a Traveler boomset for Kenwood because I was 
informed that all of the Travelers have Icom elements and only the 
connectors are different. I realize that this doesn't directly address 
the hand mic issue but perhaps it could help with some homebrewing.

PS, As soon I clear a workable area on my bench, construction of the K2 
will begin.
