The MH3 has a matching plug. However, the mic jack can also be used with mics having a 3-circuit (stereo) plug. These will not provide PTT or UP/DN controls, but can still be used with VOX or the XMIT switch (equivalent to PTT). Two menu entries are provided for mic configuration: one to turn bias on/ off and another to turn the UP/DN buttons on/off. Heil headsets with two stereo plugs (one for stereo receive audio, the other for the mic) can be used. Generic computer headsets with these two plugs will also work. There are very small, pivoting mics available from places like Fry's that have a 3-circuit plug. These are compatible with the KX3's mic jack, too, and in fact allow you to use the KX3 like an HT (in a pinch). We'll expand our list of compatible mics over time. 73, Wayne N6KR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
