My Heil headset has two plugs on the end of its cable:
One is a black 1/4 stereo phono plug for the headphones, and I see where to
plug that into the PHONES jack on the front of the radio, so no problem
there.
The second is a gray 1/8 mono plug for the mike, and I DON'T see where to
plug that
... you need the additional Heil AD1-Y8 adapter for the FLEX5000.

And the second plug is for your Handheld or foot pedal keying switch once you
have the adapter cord.

The gray is the mic connector. You can build an adapter for about $10 if
you have to buy all the parts or less if you have a parts box.
If you plan to use a footswitch just us the mic line on the 8 pin plug and
then use the ptt on the back of the Flex.

Thanks guys. I think we are having a serious problem with the headset.
Carter has two of the adapter plugs.
I am REALLY hoping it is the headset and not the rig. I'm going to take
over a Traveler and RCA phono plug adapters and make sure we have the mixer
settings right which is of course new
The RCA adapter plugs are for the back panel inputs (line in and PTT) so we
can make sure the front plug is working.

Thanks, Bob. I am looking to see what parts I have here. I was trying to see
if I could make these adapters without bothering you, but you are too
smart/quick for me! Hi!

I am running an SDR 1000 and a W5XD Multi-keyer which have been in
service for several years as an IF for UHF transverters.
When I upgraded Power SDR from 1.18.3 to 2.0.22 the RF output stopped
while in CW mode (SSB is OK).
If I launch the older version of Power SDR 1.18.3 the RF output returns
To me, the fan in the 3000 is very noisy and you have to deal with the
modular RJ45 mic plug. It's worth it to me to have the 5000.

If a computer fan, which are not that loud, bugs you, then FLEX-3000
when transmitting will also bug you.
I mitigated the problem by putting the FLEX-3000 underneath the
operating desk at the far end from where my mic is located. Be careful
about putting it in an acoustic enclosure since the

Hi to the group. I've been thinking about using a headset for my flex5000A.
(dangerous thing thinking !). I want to try a standard gaming headset which
comes with a mike and a headphone mini jacks and do the audio shaping with
the Flex. The question is, that I remember at one point in time that
My computer fan noise is -40 dBm according to my iPhone and the IC-706 I am
using on 10 meters for WSPR has a more noticeable fan than the Flex-3000
here. The Flex-3000 is some distance away from my operating position.

With all of this discussion about the 3000 and 5000, it is apparent that
the 5000 has lots more bells and whistles than the 3000. But, I need
to ask if the 5000 can hear more or send better or clearer than the 3000

Brian,
Since I do not have any close by stations, I guess I will stick with my
3000 and spend the money on another amplifier.

Yes, and the 1500 too.

2 - mic
Dave,
When all else fails, read the manual.
According to page 4 of the FLEX-3000 Owner's Manual, the answer is Yes.

My 3000 is close to the operating position and I find the fans on the loud
side.
So I took the cover off and noticed the fans are mounted directly on a metal
plate that mounts directly to the base of the 3000.
Its not so much the fan blowing noise as the mechanical noise from them
being mounted

Its native so no drivers needed.
Or, you can look on Amazon for one with a TI chipset.

A solution that suits the user is all that matters. I have space

Well I really don't like headphones for one, and more importantly
they make it hard to listen to 4 or 5 radios at one time. And a key to
listening to that many radios at one time is having the ability to
spatially orientate the various audio sources,
