Jim and all,
If you ordered the Heil ProSet-K2 that Elecraft is selling (or any other
Heil manufactured product that Elecraft sells), you have no need for
concern. All those microphones are made with elements designed
specifically for the K2.
It is only folks with the Heil products using the HC-4 or HC-5 mic elements
who need be concerned about the output level - but Elecraft does not sell
those.
In the specific case of the ProSet-K2, notice the following words on the
Elecraft Product page "Flexible Boom comes equipped with Heil Optimized
Condenser Element for the K2". Also note that the Elecraft adapter is
included, so it will connect to the mic jack if you have the configuration
header wired for the Elecraft mics (header jumpered straight across and the
5.6k resistor wired between pin 6 and pin 1 of the mic jack).
Most of the posts on this subject are to help those few folks who have the
non-K2 Heil products by offering alternatives that may work for them (short
of purchasing a new mic).
73,
Don W3FPR

I just ordered the SSB option along with the Heil headset mic. I am now
seeing posts about problems with the Heil mics. It was advertised as being
specifically designed for the K2.
I was informed by Elecraft that the headset by Heil is on back order.
Maybe I am premature in worrying. Can someone summarize the problem with the
headset mic by Heil and what the issues appear to be ?
