Well, I don't know. I also have a non electret version which I use with my FT 1000D. Maybe it would be interesting to try it on the K3 with the bias turned off just in case. I suspect the gain might be lower but I would be mainly concerned about whether it might short something that shouldn't be shorted. I don't recall whether the non-electret Proset came with a connector schematic or not. Maybe someone else on the forum has already tried this with the K3. If so and the radio is still working I guess that would be reassuring.

Well, I haven't tried the electret version but I have the dynamic Proset 5 and it works fine (at least, for the few SSB QSOs I felt obligated to make as a beta tester). -- 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA http://www.qsl.net/k2vco _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
