Ken,

Install an additional one at pin 8.
That will allow you to use any Kenwood dynamic mic.

Hi Don,

Thanks, I built the K2 and have not yet installed any plugs.
I plan to install 3 at pins 1,2 and 7.

    Ken,

    That will work OK -- BUT only if your K2 microphone configuration
    header is wired for either the Elecraft (without the bias
    resistor) or the Kenwood mic pinout.

    If you built the K2, you should know how it is plugged, but if you
    bought it used, check it.

    If the bias resistor is installed, lift the resistor lead off mic
    jack pin 1.

        Hi everybody,

        Here is my plan, please check me:

        Using a hybrid cable that I made for my K3 9 years ago....

        5 pin Kenwood 'B Connector' (per the MC-50 manual) to an 8 pin DIN
        connector (K2 connection).

        1 - 1 AF
        2 - 2 PTT
        5 - 7 GND
