Hello gentleman,

Yes, correct Kenwood MC-43s is very good.

主題： Re: [Elecraft] K2 KSB2 mic selesction

I have tried several mics on my K2,I also did the 1K R mod to feed bias to the Elecraft MH3 by Don's advice and finally have come to the conclusion that the best articulate modulation I obtained was using the Kenwood MC-43S that I purchased new for $52.I tried the stock hand mic that came with my former FT-2000 but even the audio gain was enough the Tx quality tend to sound too bassy,also tested the small Tentec mic that came with it and its too high pitch,you might keep this Kewnwood mic in consideration and besides will not need any bias saving you the resistor mod work done.

Dick,

According to the microphone information at the G4WPW website 
http://www.timroberts-vk4yeh.id.au/G4WPW_mic_connections/index.htm
Any of those microphones are usable.  The 'bias' resistor for the SM5 is 
shown as 1k to + 9 volts, but the K2 provides only +5 volts.  You might 
try 1k to the +5 volt supply as starters and experiment with different 
values until you find what works best.
