I've used a couple different non-Elecraft Heil headsets with my K2. I use the standard Heil Proset Plus which has both the HC4 HC5 elements as well as the BM-5 (I think that is the model, single earpiece with an HC5 element I think). The only thing I did to the K2 was modify one resistor,

I would just call or eMail Heil and ask them which element (HC-4 DX or HC-5) they use in the Elecraft headset. Give you odds your HC-4 will work dynamite with the K2... 73, Art W6KY --- Ken Alexander [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All, Just ordered a K2 last week and am looking forward to

Thanks to everyone for your quick and thoughtful responses. Interestingly, the Elecraft Proset uses a condenser mic element. I'd always assumed that the HC-4 and HC-5 were dynamic elements. Maybe I'm wrong. Thanks again and 73, Ken Alexander VE3HLS --- Art - W6KY [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

My first SSB QSO with my 10-watt K2 was with a DX station who said he wouldn't have picked me put of the pilleup except for my excellent audio. I was (and still am) using the Heil HC4 dynamic mike element which I retrofitted into my old station mike. 73, de Earl, K6SE K2/100 #2622

I bought mine from HRO in Burbank - they called Heil while I was waited, and asked his advice. He said that I should use the Icom headset with the Kenwood cable, which I bought. I've gotten very good audio reports over time. I also use the Heil footswitch. Tom W6EIJ
