KX2 fw 2.61 Mic Bias / MIC BTN

Michael Walker
All

On my KX2, I can't seem to change MIC BIAS or MIC BTN settings.

Spinning the VFO knob has no affect.  I am on 2.61 firmware DSP 1.46.

I can change other settings just fine.

Anyone else see this?

Mike,

Do you have a mic plugged in? If not the KX2 is in internal mic mode.

Also, make sure you are not in data mode... the KX2 won't let you change some of those settings in data mode.

Tom, W2YF

No mic plugged in as it is a Heil mic.

However, if I plug in the Heil mic (mono) which puts it into TX, that
allows me to change it.

I guess it becomes and chicken & egg thing then.  :)

Tom Crayner
Correct, something has to be plugged into the jack (a mic or soundcard) before the KX2 will let you change those two in particular.

The latest field-test KX2 firmware (2.62) allows all mic and VOX settings to be adjusted regardless of mode or type of mic in use. I'll send it to you.
