Just a quick followup in case it will be of use to somebody else some
day. I went with the TenTec 701 for my K2 because it was a quick and
easy option, and as Don said (thanks Don!), it works well. Since
finishing K2 #6100 last week, I have made several 5-10w SSB contacts
from my QTH in
Anyone have a similar recommendation for the desktop 708/709 Ten Tec
mics?
Thanks es 73,

Thanks to all for the replies to my K2 microphone question. I have a
much better idea what my options are now. I am leaning toward a Heil
iCM or Handi_Mic (electret), but considering the TenTec 701. I imagine
that the new MH2 would be ideal, but I hope to finish my K2 by the end

Hi all,
I am in the process of building K2 #6001 and need to start thinking
about a microphone. I've looked over the Reflector archives, and it
seems that there are lot of little mods needed for a variety of
microphones. The simplest solution would be a MH2, but I don't know
that I can
Greg,
The K2 needs a high output microphone, and that usually means an
electret type element. Most Icom mics (and Heil mics with the 'iC'
suffix) are the high output electret type. If you choose one of these
and wire your K2 configuration header for ICOM (with a 5.6k resistor
between the
Greg,
I bought a Handi_Mic for K2 5707 a few months ago. As Don stated, you need to
get the electret type, iC version. I bought the Kenwood cable, wired the K2
header straight through. I incorporated a resistor to power the electret
