Re: [Elecraft] K3 + Heil HC4
Do you have MENU:MIC SEL set to FP.H? BIAS on? Mic gain on my setup is 25. I put an ohmeter on the adapter, and pin 1 is the hot lead, pin 7 is ground. Are you sure you're looking at the pins correctly? Looking into the connector on the front of the K3, pin 1 is on the left of the key bump and pin 7 is on the right. The pins are numbered anti-clockwise from 1 to 7, with 8 being in the middle. I don't think the Heil adapter has anything inside the shell, no extra components. 73, Mike ki4...@msn wrote: Hello Mike, Thanks for the link.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 + Heil HC4
My guess would be that you have the wrong adapter. It needs to be the Kenwood one. The settings should be FP-H and no bias. 73 Ian -- Ian J Maude, G0VGS SysOp GB7MBC HB9DRV-9 DX Clusters Member RSGB, GQRP 9838, FISTS 14077 | K3 #455 http://www.amateurradiotraining.org 2009/12/23 n3ua ki4...@msn.com I am unable to get Heil HC4 working connected to K3 front panel.Tried FP.H/FP.L with bias on and off but no luck !??.

Re: [Elecraft] K3 + Heil HC4
You say the rear panel settings work - put those same settings on the FP mic menu and try it. If a condenser mic element works on the FP, then you must have Bias set on - turn it off for the HC-4 and set the range to H. You must have the Kenwood adapter to use the front panel connector. IIRC, the color band for the Kenwood adapter is red. 73, Don W3FPR n3ua wrote: I am unable to get Heil HC4 working connected to K3 front panel.Tried FP.H/FP.L with bias on and off but no luck !??.
