[CQ-Contest] Heil from Kenwood to Icom

[Dan Violette]

My guess.  Icom has 8V on the mic line to drive preamps, since they decided
not to put them in the radios :-(.  Need a DC blocking capacitor in line.
Forget the value, but want to pass voice and block DC.  Should be referenced
in the manual, or on the web all over the place.

Hello all!
As i have changed my old TS-50 for a IC-7400 i would like to use my heil
with
it.

Could anybody tell me how to "remake" the connection, please?

I have rewired the mic conector as said in the IC manual... so
Kenwood		Icom
1			1		MIC
2			5		PTT
7			7		GND
8			6		GND(mic)

When i connect this to my new rig (the ic) i can change between rx/tx but no
signal goes to the air... no voice, mic signal is not working...

Any idea?
Thanks.
