Thanks Don comming back to me

Really there are no version. Heil Traveler headset should be a clear setup 
regarding mic. You can not select the element used there. It is what they 
call a IC element on all of them with no exception.

So i got the 8 pin Kenwood adapter with the belive that i could open the 
connector and add a foot switch. But as mentioned in first mail the conector 
was over-molded

But if you belive that they will provide me with a drawings over the pin out 
of there product at Heil, I will for sure try to send a mail.
