This may be a stupid question, but why are you trying to make one of 
those mics work?    Almost any inexpensive electret microphone will work 
great with the K3.  I've tried four different computer headsets 
(microphone and earphones) and each one has produced terrific audio 
based upon literally dozens of on-the-air reports (both stateside and 
DX), listening to the K3 internal monitor, and recording myself from a 
secondary receiver in the shack.  The headset I'm using right now only 
cost $10 and comes with a 3.5 mm connector that plugs directly into the 
rear mic jack with no modifications necessary.

The ONLY Elecraft purchase I've ever regretted buying was the MH-2 mic 
... it works fine but is totally unnecessary.
