Robert,
Wire the K2 mic header for the Yaesu configuration (I highly recommend
using wirewrapping if you can locate/borrow a tool and some #30 wire)
and that mic should work FB.
If you want to check on the mic gain, hold DISPLAY to indicate ALC and
check to see how many ALC bars are illuminated. If you see one or more
blinking on peaks, that is enough. You have 2 levels of gain and 4
levels of compression available in the K2 menu and that is usually
enough - I suggest setting the SSBA at 2 and SSBC at 3:1, but your
mileage may vary on the settings. Try it.
73,
Don W3FPR

Hi Elecrafters
I have never used my K2 on SSB but have the option fitted.
I have a Yaesu MH-31B8 dynamic microphone that I would like to use.
Has anyone tried this mic? and did you need a pre-amp?
Thankyou and 73
