We have designed another Rework Eliminator(TM) K2 accessory. Our latest offering is a K2 Remote Mic Header assembly. It consists of two tiny four-layer PCBs which fit between the K2's Front Panel and Control circuit boards. As with our un-module header kit, this new product also eliminates the need for substantial disassembly of the K2 enclosure. Once it's installed reconfiguring your K2 for any of the "microphone wiring standards" described in the KSB2 manual can be accomplished in a few seconds after removing the K2's left side panel.
For technical details including a User's Guide, preliminary assembly and installation instructions, and some 1,000 DPI CAD renderings, please see http://www.unpcbs.com/micpcb/. (The User's Guide includes a growing list of Frequently Asked Questions.) We've not yet determined the cost to produce this kit so we can only guess as to what the retail price will be. In addition, volume will be a contributing factor affecting the price since there are fixed costs associated with PCB production. Presently we just need to know if there's a sufficient demand for this accessory to warrant producing it. If you are interested, please indicate so by voting in our latest unpcbs Yahoo Group poll at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/unpcbs/. (You will need to join the group to register your vote.) This is still very much a work in progress so we welcome your comments, suggestions, and criticisms. Thank you for your interest. We will keep you posted in the coming weeks as to the fate of this product. 73, Ken, WB2ART, K2 #769 & #5048 Gary, KI4GGX, K2 #4067 Rework Eliminator, Rework Eliminators, and unpcbs are trademarks of Ken Kaplan and Gary Hvizdak.
