[Elecraft] K3 Microphone

Hi All, I got really excited when the K3 turned up in the post. I suppose you cannot imagine the look on my face when I opened it all up and lifted all the contents onto the bench in the shack and discovered that my K3 arrived without a microphone. I know, read the order form fully next time.

[Elecraft] K3 Mic

aaah..but I wanted to go portable (as in the outback) for a week to 10 days and I did not plan on ordering a desk mic right now. Speaking of which, has anyone had any problems getting Heil to respond to an e-mail request regading a mic and ordering? I see they have gone it alone with their

[Elecraft] Heil Microphones

I don't want to seem like I am flogging a dead horse, but, has anyone found a nice base Mic from Heil Sound that works nicely with a K3? There are many choices ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous and all I really need is a nice natural sounding base mic for the shack now that I have a hand

[Elecraft] K3 #679

G'Day from Down Under, Well I did the download last night and I never ever thought that I could do this without my fingers getting out of sync with what little grey matter I had left. But, to my absolute surprise, it worked a treat. Thanks Elecraft for sending me a superb radio even I can use.

[Elecraft] K2 vs K3

I have adjusted the RX EQ to alter the sound of the audio and in particular when using the 1.0Khz filter. I have now achieved a somewhat rich tone (to my poor old ears) that is pleasant to listen too. I had no idea just how good I could make it when using the 1.0Khz filter on ssb when I started
