I've just gotten my MH2 working again with a RadioShack 270-090 element. I have no idea if that's the right part, but it appeared identical to the Heil part, and the o'scope says about 120 mV p-p when I talk normally (Measured at pin 5 of the SSB adapter - should be the same as mic connectory pin 1).
Anyhow, I sold my "other" rig years ago as the K2 was all I appeared to need. I'm wondering how to deal with on-air reports of "horrible audio, almost unreadable" without hearing what I sound like. Ideas: a) Borrow an SSB rig and fix my K2. b) Try stuff randomly on the air and hope the other ops give consistent info. I'm not sure how much trouble a) would be, but it's most likely the best way. I wonder what the shipping would be to borrow an "extra" rig from someone? Any "spares" out there? b) should work, but I have SSBA-1, SSBA-2, SSBC 1:1, SSBC 2:1, SSBC 3:1, SSBC 4:1, the VFO (how to tune someone whose voice you don't know) and of course, the BFO. Varying all of these in an organized way is going to take another receiver or someone VERY patient on the other end of the aether. Ideas? Hey, anyone know of an Internet receiver I can listen through? That might work. Only thing I could find in the archives is http://www.smeter.net/ and it's off the air.
