[Elecraft] kx2 SSB always in TX

[Michael Walker]

Ops, missed that.  I used shield ground, not logic ground.

However, when I tested Ring 1 to Ring 2, it is open and then shorts when
you push the PTT button.  This seems to be working as designed.

I did confirm that mic is plugged in all the way and did a close visual
look at it to make sure.
