An easy solution is to just bite the bullet and buy an Elecraft
microphone, or buy a Heil with a Kenwood adapter. Bob Heil explained to
me that his microphones (except for those with an electret element (such
as those for the Icom - iC suffix) had only 4 pins - AF, AF Ground, PTT
and PTT Ground - his adapters routed his 'standard' 4 pin arrangement to
the proper pins of the transceiver. The Heil Kenwood adapters do not
use either pins 5 or 6, so there is no conflict between the Elecraft
pinout and the Kenwood for *his* adapters.
The latest Heil ProSets come with miniature phone plugs -- a stereo one
for the phones and a mono one for the mic. These plug into the various
adapters for the various transceivers. However, they also plug directly
into the rear panel mic and phones connectors on the K3, so for this
microphone you do *not* need to buy a Kenwood or other adapter.
