I’ve gotten that. I just saved again and that one was ok. Then I deleted the error one...but I don’t think the save with the error is necessarily bad. Chuck Jack Hawley KE9UW Sent from my iPhone, cjack > On Jun 19, 2020, at 6:38 PM, "g...@gmx.net" wrote: > > Hello, > anybody encountered

[Elecraft] MH4 Mic on a K2?

The Elecraft manual says the condenser type MH4 mic is acceptable for use on the K2, but I don't see any bias for it in the K2 or SSB2 schematics. I never had a mic for the K2 so I thought I'd get the MH4 and maybe use it on my K3s as well. Am I missing something? Is there bias for it on the
