Apparently the ATR-30 has been discontinued. The ATR-1300
seems to be the replacement even though the ATR-30 was labeled
"professional" and the ATR-1300 "consumer." The ATR-1300 is
$18.99 at B&H Photo (www.bhphotovideo.com).
One note about any "prosumer" mic - you will need to use an external
means of T/R switching, e.g. foot switch or VOX, since those mics do
not include a PTT switch unlike "communications" microphones.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 Microphone Choices
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 would not wast the money on replacing the MC-60 with a Heil. If you
*really* want a "professional" mic, look at an ATR-30 which is generally
available for half of what a PR-20 or similar Heil "Pro"
mic. You will not be able to tell the difference among the three in "blind"
listening tests.
I basically like to operate for DX though I do chat from time to time
on some nets.
Use the TX EQ - don't waste your money on another mic.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
