[Elecraft] K2 mike question...

[Steve Kallal]

I just finished the KSB2 option for my K2. I wired P1 for the ICOM mikes. I
have a GM-4 Heil boom mike with an ICOM cable. I also have the HM-36 ICOM
mike. I was able to get the GM-4 to work without the 10k resistor. The HM-36
requires the resistor, which I haven't hooked up yet.
 
Can the Heil GM-4 work with the 10k hooked up from AF to 5V? If so it would
make my setup a little easier.
 
Another idea is to wire P1 for a Kenwood setup. I still have the Kenwood
cable for my GM-4 sitting around somewhere. That way I could use the Heil
mikes designed for the K2. Actually the Kenwood and Elecraft mikes are wire
almost identically. The only difference I see between the two, is the
resistor used for the Elecraft mikes. Since the Elecraft mikes are Heil
mike, I wonder if the GM-4 with the Kenwood cable would work with the
resistor included.
