Alan,
The rear mic jack is a mono, not stereo, jack. It will short the ring and
sleeve together. Audio is on the tip, as is the voltage. The mic should
have a blocking capacitor to isolate the audio from the voltage.
This is standard for every radio I have owned. If a stereo jack is used, it
would be for PTT, not a separate bias connection.

Why would Elecraft do it this way, so these gaming headsets don't work
without an ugly crossover adapter? Is there any non-soldering way to
change the connections on the rear panel Mic jack?
Thanks,
Alan G3XAQ
