[Elecraft] Rigblaster and K2 microphone (Heil proset)

[Slater Tubman]

This is sort of like yelling fire after the barn burned down.  I know  
that some smart soul out there has the answer.

I have a K2 with SSB adapter.  Use the Heil Proset purchased from  
Elecraft.

In configuring the microphone jumpers in a Rigblaster Plus, do I use  
the configuration for "Elecraft 8 pin screw on" (page 8 in manual),  
or the one for "....Heil mics" as per top of page 9 in manual?

I presently am using the first option but am not obtaining  
performance that is 100% predictable.    The reason I have started to  
question this is that I have problems using SSB through the  
Rigblaster but not when connected directly to the K2.  Process of  
elimination would indicate to me that perhaps I should consider the  
second option but I don't want to cause any problems in the K2.

I am revamping the shack this afternoon, trying valiantly to hide the  
myriad of cables and wires that seem to breed on my desk.  I am  
believing that someone will have the right answer on this when it  
comes time to put everything back together again.
