With my K3 and a "570D" hand mic (MC-43S), I have the following settings:
Mic gain 20 to 30 (depends how loud you talk)
Compression 20
Mic selection FP.H with no bias (when bias is turned on the word "bIAS"
appears alongside FP.H)
I also have some TX EQ to reduce low frequencies and increase higher
ones, it depends on your voice.
With TX test selected, a monitor audio level of 22, the audio sounds
good and the CMP/ALC metering kicks up nicely on normal speech.

-----------------
I'm trying two different mics to transmit with.
One is a Kenwood hand mic from a Kenwood 570D
and the other is a Heil Pro Set Plus with an 8pin
Kenwood mic adapter. I haven't had any luck when even
trying to set up my levels for transmitting. I cannot get any bar
to show up or move on the ALC or Compression when keying down.
I have tried with the compression as high a 30 and the mic gain as high
as 60 but no movement, whether in TX Test or regular TX mode.
I feel like I am forgetting to change one setting somewhere,
if that is what the problem is.
I put the K3 together myself and don't know if something could
have been done wrong there, but after looking again and again
in the manual, I just don't know what else to try.
Any suggestions, even to go and check basic settings will be
appreciated. Please reply offline.
Thanks
