Re: [Elecraft] MH2 mic and the K3
And a Mea Culpa from me. I have a MH2 that I use very infrequently with my K2 and it works well. When the question was asked, I noted the instructions were different for the K3 but failed to read them carefully. I should have tried my MH2 on my K3 before offering advice. I have only a casual interest in SSB and the MH2 will come in handy for those few special event stations I enjoy working.

Re: [Elecraft] MH2 mic and the K3
I am sorry to disagree, but the MH2 will work fine for both the K2 and K3. They are interchangable. After the repair and configuration of over 1000 K2s, I am quite familiar with the K2 microphone configuration for various microphones. Yes, the K2 mic config header must be jumpered properly and have a bias resistor soldered between pins 1 and 6 on the rear of the mic jack, but once set up it will work. The original poster has his K2 set up to use that microphone already. Moving it to the K3 is simply a matter of setting the MIC SEL menu to FP L Bias. If the MH2 mic fails, the MH4 is a direct replacement. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/26/2021 4:34 PM, Clark Macaulay wrote: Download the MH2 instructions from Elecraft site and you will see that the mic has different jumper settings for the K3. I’m not sure if an MH2 configured for K2 will work unchanged with K3. The K2 config in the mic has a resistor that is not there for K3. At least that is the way I read it. Bottom line: mic should work fine with either rig but not interchangeable. __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com

Re: [Elecraft] MH2 mic and the K3
Mike, Yes, no problem. It needs bias. The MH4 was the replacement when the MH2 was no longer able to be sourced by Elecraft. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/26/2021 1:13 PM, NJMike wrote: Will the MH2 hand mic that was originally for the K2 work with the K3?

Will the MH2 hand mic that was originally for the K2 work with the K3? I know there is an MH4 mic now that works with both rigs.
