Hi John, This should get you going:
MENU Set ups for the older Heil versions of the MH3 with dynamic mic elements: - MENU: MIC BTN = PTT (not PTT up dn) - MENU: MIC BIAS = OFF Wiring: On KX3, use a 1/8" (3.5mm) plug. Don't worry about the 2nd ring on the picture shown in the KX3 Owner's Manual - the 2nd ring is for the up/dn buttons. This means we get to use the more common 1/8" Tip-Ring-Sleeve (TRS) plug. MH-2 pin -------> KX3 pin # --------- ---------- 1 (MIC) Tip 2 PTT Ring 7,8 GND Sleeve So, you'd need the standard 8-pin socket to match the MH2's 8-pin plug to a 1/8" TRS plug (Radio Shack has those) and you're there. As for someone to make up a cable for you, here's an eBay vendor <http://stores.ebay.com/W7YENs-AMATEUR-RADIO-HELPERS?_trksid=p2047675.l2563> - I have no experience with him - who appears to be able to do this for you.
