I have a Heil headset that I purchased about 4 years ago. I'm not sure if it is the "pro" or not. As memory serves, at the time, the next step up had a dual element with a switch. The headset has an HC-5 element. I have an adapter to this to connect to my recently sold, since finishing my base K2, Kenwood TS-570D(G). I have also purchased an MH2 microphone.

The original plan was to sell a different radio, (IC-718) and keep the TS-570 and thus the headset. The plan then was to use the MH2 for the K2. I will still be using the MH2 primarily for the K2. But I want to be able to use the headset on occasion as needed.

I understand the instructions for wiring up the MH2 on the K2. How will this impact the use of the headset?

This email suggests it only needs straight across jumpers.

If that is the case, and I do have the Kenwood adapter already, then if I just put the straight jumpers in, I should be fine.

If I want to use the MH2, then I need to either put the resistor in the microphone somehow (not something I am looking to tackle with my large hands) or make an adapter cable for the MH2 that has the resistor in it.

Am I barking up the correct tree hear, or chasing a feral goose?
