I have a new K2 and bought a "Texas Ranger" non-amplified microphone from a truck stop (Johnson's Corner on I25 near Loveland, CO) for $17. I had to change the connector which I bought from Radio Shack.
This is not where I bought the microphone, but here is a link to the one I have. I got the "Replacement Mike". I didn't think I would need an "Echo Mike", HI HI. http://www.dx-electronics.com/mics.htm I have had nothing but good reports on the quality of my audio. My brother W7CKW said it sounded good to him and he knows what I sound like. 73's Leon NE0N -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Wayne Reed Sent: Thursday, November 17, 2005 1:09 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] K2 Microphones Gang, Just put the SSB board in my K2 [S/N 4858]. I have tried my Shure 444 with the K2 and seem to have no drive. I think I will try a portable telephone headset. I will need to get some bias for the mike from the K2 then I'll find out if I have a problem with the SSB board or my old trusty 444. Would like to hear from those who have used cheap/nonstandard microphones with the K2.
