All Heil ProSets are indeed NOT the same! The one specific to Elecraft used (not sure if it is still being marketed or is still otherwise available - don't see it listed on the Elecraft site or on the Heil site) an "electret" element and mine is actually labeled on the side with "IC" indicating that it was actually for ICOM. The "dongle" provides the proper pinout for use on either my K2 (wired straight across - as for Kenwood) or my K3. As usual, YMMV Don N4HH

I know that the Proset K2 sold by Elecraft requires bias. However I wouldn't think other Heil Prosets that use the HC-4 and HC-5 element would require bias.

For use on the front panel, your mic setting should read "FP.L bIAS" - use the "REV" (has the red number 2 under it" to turn bias on. 73 -- Don N4HH K3 #83 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jac Sent: Sunday, June 01, 2008 4:29 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] K3 #107 Great radio, just one minor problem, no SSB, no VOX response to yelling.. When first I tried it very briefly (ages ago) it definitely worked. Since then I have only used CW .... So what could have gone wrong ??? I have always used the Elecraft Heil Pro Set and the phones work just fine. The mike is plugged into the adapter that came with the Pro Set. The latest software says the mike is still set to f.Pl, not to r.Pl. I can play with the gain, the compression etc but nothing happens when I yell. Antivox is set at 0; VOX gain makes no difference. Other settings seem perfectly OK and nothing changes if I play with them. So what have I done wrong ...... there must be something I missed. Oh well, there is always my Omni-V .....that has its own mike.
