[Kenwood] TS-850 and Heil pro set w/ HC-5

[Mike Brown]

With the items you have it will not do PTT. You have a headset and the AD-1 
for the Kenwood. You have to have a footswitch or handswitch that Heil (or 
whomever sells) and plug it into the 1/4" female on the AD-1 that says "PTT 
FOOTSWITCH". Just the headset and AD-1 will do vox only. If they do PTT, 
it's news to me.

Good luck... 73, Mike K9MI
