The K-3 requires a microphone cable configured to the Kenwood standard. I'm not sure about the Omni, but my Orion II uses a Yaesu standard cable. You may want to check. I suspect the foster connector pins are miswired for the K-3. You may also want to be sure the bias is off as I believe that is probably a dynamic microphone element rather than an electret. You may also wish to check with Heil. I believe they sell an appropriate dongle for the pro set would work with the K-3.
