kenwood mic

[john-49]

hi everyone, does some have a pinout available for a "kenwood mic" for the k2? I have a heil mh-1 but am misunderstanding mic wiring a little here, wanting to try a different mic with pre-amp, and known mic wiring, many thanks.

Suggest that you download the KSB2 manual from the Elecraft web site.

John,

The pinout and the microphone configuration header information is in the
KSB2 manual (download it from the Elecraft website if you do not have a
copy).

The Kenwood pinout is almost the same as the Elecraft pinout *except*
for pins 5 and 6 which are interchanged between the two.  A Kenwood
dynamic microphone normally does not use pins 5 and 6, but if you have
an amplified Kenwood microphone, then it is highly likely that the mic
expects to have voltage (+5 to +8 volts) on pin 5.

I looked at the Heil website and could not find an MH-1 microphone.  Was
that a typo and you really meant the Elecraft MH2 microphone that was
manufactured by Heil - turn it over and read the back label - those
microphones had the Heil label on the front and has confused many people.

For a good resource on microphone pinouts, look at the list compiled by
G4WVW at http://www.timroberts-vk4yeh.id.au/G4WPW_mic_connections/index.htm.
