Bill,

The Icom mic will NOT work on the K3 unless you re-wire the mic plug.

The Heil headset needs either the Kenwood adapter (red) or it can be 
plugged into the rear jacks.
If that Heil headset is for certain an Elecraft Proset-K2/3, then it 
needs bias turned on because it has an electret element, just like the 
Elecraft MH2.  OTOH, if it is a regular Heil Proset it does not need bias.
One must be very specific about Heil microphones, there are many 
configurations and several different kinds of elements.

73,
Don W3FPR
