Yes, the CM500 will plug directly into the rear jacks on the K3. Set the MIC selection to RP and press the [1] key to set it to "L" or low level. Now use the [2] key to cycle to "Bias". Once you have the headset, go thru the normal mic gain and compression adjustments. You'll find the mic gain to be set pretty low (prob less then 20) and adjust comp to get about 10db on the COMP scale. I'm trying to remember, but I think I have the TX EQ set to -16 -16 -16 0 0 0 0 0. My widest filter is 2.8KHz so I haven't tried AM or FM so far.
