[Elecraft] MH2 Info/Schematic

[Don Wilhelm]

Ben,

The MH2 that I have makes hot connections only to pins 1 and 2 and 
ground on pins 7 and 8, so you can use any of pins 3, 4, 5, or 6.  If 
you have wired the resistor to mic jack pins 6 and 1, then pin 6 is not 
usable unless you modify the 5 volt take-off point on the front panel board.

So the short answer is: In a normal K2 wired for the Elecraft MH2, you 
can freely use mic jack pins 3, 4, and 5 (remember to remove the jumpers 
for those pins from the mic configuration header so you don't feed 
anything back into the K2 circuits).

73,
Don W3FPR
