I found that if I power the SL1+ from the same 12v that powers the K2, I get ground loop noise. I haven't tried pulling power out of the mic jack. I use a small battery. But these days when I use it with my K2 I use the RS232 rig control for keying and don't turn the SL1+ on at all, just using it for the isolation.

Hi,

Just received a Tigertronics SL 1+ interface.
The instructions say that it requires 6.75 to 15VDC.

I see in the K2 manual that pin 6 of the mic connector has 5VDC.
Can that be used?  Do I need a connector to the RS232?

All responses greatly appreciated (as usual)
