[Elecraft] Need help setting up mic jumpers on K2
Hi Folks, Has anyone set up the jumpers on a K2 for an Icom SM-6? The desk microphone has an internal preamp. The KSB2 manual says: Do not connect pin 2 unless mic has internal preamp. Touch-tone ICs may be sensitive to stray RF. Resistor, AF to 5V: HM-7, 820 ohms; HM-12/22/23/36, 10 K. I am assuming I should just connect the 5V to pin 2 If possible I would like to be able to use the HM-36 as well. Should I use a resistor?

Can't agree with you more Dave, I am into telescopes as well as ham radio, and there is a high end manufacturer of telescopes named Astro-Physics (www.astro-physics.com) They have a waiting list that goes for 3 to 4 years! Anyway, their policy is if they catch someone doing the scalp thing the person is blacklisted and is not allowed to purchase any more items from the company. I think Elecraft should follow suit.

There are hundreds or thousands of ham radios on ebay at any given time and you of course are welcome to your opinion about this subject and ebay as much as anyone, but postings like this in one public is pretty bad juju. I was apprehensive when I ordered the gear, not because I was afraid of losing on it, but because I was doing it to have some fun while I waited for my own K3, a diversion like the wiki I created, and was afraid that someone might characterize me negatively about it. Rest assured there is not enough money that I could make on an auction (my last one occurred in 1999) to compromise my good name.

Some folks must be willing to pay a premium for not having to wait. The law of Supply and Demand is applied here, although, in my opinion, it's sure not, in the spirit of ham radio. I know I wouldn't do it, nor would I bid on it. It's the same thing as ticket scalping, even though that is illegal in some places. Free enterprise is just that, free to do whatever is legal. The listing on ebay mentions the reserve price at that of an assembled kit due to sales tax, shipping and other fees. $80 or so for shipping and other fees from Aptos, California to Carlsbad, California? Other sealed Elecraft K3 items in future auctions are also mentioned. I won't be bidding on those either. I would hope that no one would bid on them but that won't happen.

Does anyone know of good method for splicing tinsel-wire cables? I am trying to repair a microphone extension cable that got ripped in two. The cable in question is a 6-wire microphone cable, with conductors that look to be about 24 to 26 gauge in size. The conductors consist of copper foil wrapped around some sort of fabric core. Attempts at stripping were dismal, using several different techniques. The cable is normally terminated into a RJ type connector, that apparently uses ID (insulation displacement) to connect to the wires. I am considering something like Scotch UR type splices, but don't want to spend money on a box without knowing if they will work or not. A new cable is a possibility, but the existing one is built in to a console, and several hours of work would be involved in removing and replacing the existing cable. Soldering to individual conductors does not work. The resulting connection is weak and very fragile. - Jim, KL7CC ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list. Subscriber Info (Addr.
