[Elecraft] K2 mic compatibility?

[Don Wilhelm]

Frank,

Unfortunately, the mic plug wiring is different than that for the MH2.
Can I assume that it is one of Heil's microphones that use an adapter?  
If so, replace the adapter with the one used for Kenwood (red band).
Since it is an Icom microphone, it likely needs bias, so the resistor 
added to the back of the K2 microphone jack can stay in place.
