That's why one adds a 0.1 uF capacitor in series with the mic hot lead in the base. Take your time and try 0.05, 0.1 and 0.5 uF to find one that fits your voice and the rig. It will roll off the excess bass and provide a rising characteristic through out the entire voice range. The MC-90 actually includes switch selected .22 uF and .047 uF capacitors with 1.2K shunt across the mic line to the rig. These techniques have been around for 40 years or more ... it used to be a .001 uF in series with the high impedance mics to the Collins, Drake and Heath rigs in the day. 73, ...

The MC60 can easily be made to sound the same. Bonus is it already has a PTT lock too and no extra cable from Heil at inflated prices. 73 Gary Sent from my Galaxy SIII On 14/03/2013 10:37 AM, "Jay" <[email protected]> wrote: The Dxer will always get the set with the HC4 element...cuts off the lows Jay W2IJ ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2013 5:28 PM Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Microphone Choices Good evening. I have a K3 and really love it. I am looking at purchasing a new microphone pretty soon. I am currently using a Kenwood MC-60 and I get excellent reports on my modulation. But I have been reading alot about the Heil microphones and was wondering what Heil microphone would work good with my system. I basically like to operate for DX though I do chat from time to time on some nets. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
