[Elecraft] Heil Proset-k2 with K3 - Settings please for newbie

[Dale Harding K7DNH]

interesting - 
 
mine came with a 1/4" stereo plug - and the 1/8 mic plug - there is an adapter that came with it to plug the 1/8 mic into and it then goes into the multipin front panel mic connection and of course the 1/4 stereo plug goes into the front phone jack - but I cant use it on the rear panel as there is no 1/4 to 1/8 stereo adapter...
 
I will email support and ask them about it - thanks

Hi Dale: 

I also ordered the Proset with my K3 and it arrived with the proper 
connectors to plug it into the front or rear. 

The headphone portion of the cable has a stereo 1/8" plug with a 1/8" to 
1/4" adapter. 

The microphone portion of the cable has a mono 1/8" plug with an adapter 
cable that converts it to the round front panel microphone connector and 
also provides a means to plug in a footswitch. 

I presently have both the microphone and headphone cables plugged into the 
rear MIC and PHONES sockets. I am not using either adapter. 

If your Proset didn't arrive with these connectors and adapters you should 
contact Elecraft so that they can investigate. Maybe Heil sent them some 
Prosets with an incorrect plug arrangement. I'm sure Elecraft contracted 
with Heil to provide the Proset with an arrangement that would work both 
front and rear.

Newbie question - 

I dont want to take the chance to fry something. I want to start using the 
Heil Proset-K2 I ordered with the K3 - but a bit unsure of exactly how to 
set it up. THe instructions that came with it are mostly for installing the 
necessary kit into the K2. 

I searched thr reflector for the setting to use and came up with opposing 
views... the majority stated  if using the front panel use the following: 
Use the adapter supplied and plug in both connectors and then into the k3 
front panel,  FP Low - with bias on, Vox On, VOx gain = 50, antivox=00 

To use the rear panel - do not use the adapter " and plug the connectors 
into the repar panel jacks - well - exactly which ones?  The only  two that 
the large one will fit is the paddle and the key. 

Apprecaite your help folks, 

Dale
