[Elecraft] Heil Proset Plus and K3

[n4lq]

Wow. It would be interesting to know how that managed to work. The IC means 
the headset is wired for ICOM then with a Kenwood adapter to an Elecraft 
mic. jack with the bias on the wrong pin. (8) instead of (5) as etc.
I'm glad it works but not sure why.
