Roy, The Elecraft MD2 microphone has an electret element. I don't know about your Unknown brand MD-2 microphone. There are no dashes in Elecraft product designations (other than the N-Gen and 2T-Gen mini modules).
If you really meant the Elecraft MD2, then you have a problem with your W2IHY setup - iot apparently does no provide for bias for the electret element. Too bad because W2IHY does offer an electret element that is supposed to be better than the Heil HC4/5 elements, and those elements do need bias voltage to operate properly. 73, Don W3FPR O7/20/2012 9:31 PM, Roy Morris wrote: > I would like to know if anyone is using the W2IHY 8 band equalizer with the > K2.
