David:
The Inrad W1 uses a dynamic mike so the bias must be OFF. As to gain,
set to High and adjust the front panel MIC gain for an indication of 4
to 6 bars indicated on the ALC scale with normal speech. Then set the
CMP for about 10 dB peaks on the CMP scale. Then adjust the VOX gain
such that it trips as you desire. I use 015. Try to keep the ANTIVOX
at a lower level. I use 005. The VOX hang or delay is set via the
DELAY value on the front panel. I use 0.16.
Position the mike to the side of your mouth and slightly above to
prevent breath pops and nasal snorts.
Good sounding mike. You'll need to set the TX EQ as follows: 50Hz @
-16, 100Hz @ -16, 200H @ -12, 400Hz @ 0, 800Hz @ 0, 1.60kHz @ +3, 2.4Khz
@+3, 3.2kHz @ +6. If you desire a bit more low end on voice then set
the 200 Hz to -6. If it is a bit bright then bring the 2.4 kHz and 3.2
kHz down 3 db each. Remember, it is always better to attenuate first,
than to boost.

I recently purchased an INRAD W1 for my K3 wanted comments on setting pf the K3
mic for L(low) or H(high) gain range.
I have always used the Elecraft Proset K2 which K3 is set L and bias on. Have
turned bias off for the INRAD W1. From what I have been able to find, the
INRAD W1 is 600 ohm and comments have been set to L. But, my K3 will not key
the VOX under the L setting and I have to set the K3 to H for high gain for the
K3 VOX to eky.
Comments appreciated.
Thanks
