OK I give up , since MOST of know that ANYTHING that is called a
microphone , ( maybe with the exception of a carbon mic ), can be hooked
up to an elecraft prompts the question " what is Wayne looking for ???
I have hooked up the military H250 dynamic handset , bunches of Shure
handhelds..and MFJ micromics like the 295. With the required 3 conductor
cable & TRS plug EVERYTHING works. Some better some not so hot...but
with EQ most sound great. An electret condenser is WAY beyond
requirements of comm audio. If you want a fancy 'studio style' check out
the amazon 28$ BM-800 series as it even come with a boom assembly &
windscreen for the ultra cool. Since any electret you can find will
work. The BM800 electret plugs into the back jack on a K3/k4. I just
bought an electret boom headset at HomeDepot for $9.99 with 3.5mm plugs,
great for KX2 trips to the beach.
Maybe there is a small container on the seas full of several micro, mini
and 'studio' mics from Elecraft. SInce electret mics cost a few
dollars , probably makes NO business sense. All MFJ needs to do is put a
proper TRS plug on their minis which are perfect for the Kx2/3.
Sounds like way too much effort to maintain a hookup sheet for the
variables. *

If you're using a non-Elecraft mic with any of our radios (K2, K3, K4, KX2,
KX3), please send me a very brief reply with the manufacturer, model number,
and a note about whether any modifications were required. We're putting
together a database of these for customer reference.
Thanks!
