[Elecraft] K2 and microphones

[Tom Zeltwanger]

Dave,

That is not what I was thinking about, but is also an interesting option. I was 
thinking about just wiring all the header pins straight through (as if for 
Elecraft mic). Then I would get short adapter cables (2 or 3  inches, with 8-
pin plug/jack on the ends) for the front panel connector. The wiring of the 
adapter would determine the mic. I just thought this is probably not a new 
idea, and maybe such adapters already exist.

Once i settle on a mic I will probably stick with it. But it would be nice to 
have the option to plug in a couple different types (desktop, headset, hand 
mic).

73,

Tom KG3V
