Hi ALL
I just wanted to add my experiences with SPIKES. My K3 is
absolutely clean NOW. I say NOW because I did have a similar
experience and after a lot of testing with my Peak SWR meter I finally
traced the problem to my MIC. I was using an amplified Kenwood MC-60.
I stopped using it and switched to my HEIL Traveler Dual Headset/Boom
mic, with Kenwood option cables, and I am now a Happy Camper.
Problem Solved. So... your results may vary but experiment with
different mics and connections. It may be that the K3 is overly
sensitive to the type of MIC signal, that is, bias or amplifier driven
verses Dynamic, no drive or it may be a defect in the MIC element itself.
I am running a solid state linear THP 1KW. No problems now.
