Bill,

Get a Yamaha CM-500. It is not noise cancelling, but can plug directly into the K3 rear jacks. Select the rear panel mic and turn on bias for it.

They are not noise cancelling, but the big cuffs cover the ears nicely and seal well.

As far as noise pickup in the microphone, use the TX Noise Gate in the K3.

Since I seldom use SSB I have not had the need to ask this question and I 
realize the responses may vary as much as belly buttons. I have a K3 and I also 
have the hand held microphone. I want to obtain a headset with an attached 
microphone to use with this radio just in case I may want to do some SSB work. 
I used to have a noise cancelling headset which I really liked because my shack 
is located in the laundry/utility room and it seems that the washer and/or 
dryer runs as often as the furnace does. The company that did make the noise 
cancelling headset no longer makes them so I am now trying to find out what 
other hams use or what is in the market place. I am especially interested in a 
noise cancelling headset with an attached microphone that sounds good on a K3.
