Mic Set-up

[David Guernsey]

Recently changed to the Elecraft MH2 mic on my K3 (SN 4052).  When I tried to set-up the mic for SSB transmit, I noted no indication in the ALC graphic when I keyed the mic.  Tried it at a mic setting of 20 and again at 40.  Mic is hooked to K3 with front panel mic input.  Any ideas?

Dave,

Did you remember to turn the bias on?

  Is the bias set correctly, ie on?

It seems to work now that I checked each item.  Bias on, and mic to High.  Will try to make some contacts and see what happens.  Thanks to all.
