I have a Heil Proset that I bought for use with my KX3. Now that I have a K2 with the SSB option I would like to use the same headset with that rig. The Proset has a 3.5 mm TRS plug. The K2 requires the usual 8-pin microphone attachment. Elecraft’s Order page says that an adapter comes with the Proset, but I can’t find one here – even assuming it was supplied when I bought the headset years ago. Anyone have an adapter for this purpose that they would sell? I have written to Sales at Elecraft but haven’t heard back yet.
Thanks, Ted, KN1CBR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [hidden email] |
I believe a Kenwood style adapter will work with the K2.

Ted,
Which Heil Proset do you have? In other words, does it need bias or not? If it needs bias, then it is either the Proset-K2 or the Proset-iC. The K2 or iC designation is normally found at the base of the headset arm. If it is the K2 or iC version, then you should configure the K2 microphone configuration header for Elecraft including the bias resistor on the back of the microphone jack. If it is any other, it has a dynamic microphone and you should leave the bias resistor off. As for the Adapter, use the one for Kenwood (red band) and all will be well with either the electret mic Proset or the dynamic mic variety. It is the AD-1-K. Elecraft may have them available, but you can also buy one from Heil or any of their distributors. 73, Don W3FPR On 11/20/2017 11:47 AM, Dauer, Edward wrote: > I have a Heil Proset that I bought for use with my KX3.
