In that case, I have used one of these for a decade or more. It supports up to 8 pounds and doesn't make noises when you move it with a live mic.

I wonder if you mean a mic on a table mounted “boom”? From the options you describe, I think this might be the case. I have a Heil PL-2T boom with a Heil SM-1 Shock mount with a Heil HM-12 mic. You’ll also need a cable (use Kenwood config) and some form of PTT if you don’t use VOX (an unused J-38 works well). This sounds good on with my K3S and K3.

Not expensive but comfortable and good sounding for both the mike and the earphones. Either works very well with the K3S. I know, I have all of them. My preference is the Koss SB-40 over the Yamaha C-500. The Koss SB-40 is essentially a Yamaha CM500 with a dynamic mic instead of an electret mic. Some people really don’t like the dynamic mic in the Koss SB-40. I’ve heard zero complaints about the electret in the CM500. The Koss SB-45 is a completely different headset design that does have an electret mic. It sells for $25, much less than the CM500 ($60). To muddy the waters further, my Yamaha CM500 has “KOSS” molded into the microphone plug. wunder K6WRU Walter Underwood CM87wj http://observer.wunderwood.org/ (my blog) ______________________________________________________________ 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]<mailto:[email protected]> ______________________________________________________________ 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]<mailto:[email protected]> ______________________________________________________________ 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]
