Hi, gang, I need your help. I just received a new MH2 mike from Elecraft and intend it for eventual use on my third round K3 order. In the meantime, I modified my K2 to use it -- the sheet included with the mike provided instructions for doing so and I added the resistor across pins 1 and 6 of the mike socket and use the header pins they provided. All went tickety-boo. I used to use an old Icom hand mic which worked very well but I was looking forward to being all Elecraft (I have an Elecraft Hexkey, too!)

Well, darn if the thing is giving me trouble: it acts as if there's RF in the system but the mike socket is grounded and it even acts that way at low power; my watt meter shows approximately 40 watts of power when the mike key is depressed on LSB but -- get this -- no power is shown when it's on USB where it seems to work fine!

What should I check?  Help!

Thanks...

73,

Joe, W2RBA
