We have some professional audio types on this list. I am not one of them. As an ordinary Ham who cares about how my signal sounds on the air, IMHO more than 90% of the differences in microphones used for communications are strictly cosmetic and convenience.
With today's advanced computer-controlled manufacturing processes the electret element in such mics far exceeds the frequency range any quality Ham rig will allow, so that is not an issue. You will want a housing with pop suppression, so your breath won't make an objectionable pop when you exhale or say certain phonemes. You need to decide between hand-held, desk or boom mount and a mic attached to a headset. And you'll want a connector wired for the K3. Elecraft makes a nice set of mics that take all the hassle out of having the right connector and of course the company stands behind them. (In "full disclosure", I'm not an employee, but have been associated with Elecraft for 16 years so far. That has given me the opportunity to use several of their mics.) 73, Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Monday, June 6, 2016 3:59 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Fw: Re: New products I want to talk about the best mike to use wit my K3 Bob K3DJC ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [email protected]
