[Elecraft] K2 Microphones

[Wayne Reed]

Gang,
    Just put the SSB board in my K2 [S/N 4858].  I have tried my Shure 444 with the K2 and seem to have no drive.  I think I will try a portable telephone headset.  I will need to get some bias for the mike from the K2 then I'll find out if I have a problem with the SSB board or my old trusty 444.
    Would like to hear from those who have used cheap/nonstandard microphones with the K2.
