I think that the K3 would like to have 600 ohms. I would imagine that this could be used on the K3 if you used an impedance transformer. Comments?
NO TRANSFORMER REQUIRED. The K3 designers do not understand audio. It will work just fine. Just wire it properly, following the diagram in http://audiosystemsgroup.com/HamInterfacing.pdf The only shortcoming of this mic is proximity effect -- extreme bass boost when it is very close to the sound source. To correct for that, you will want to tweak the TXEQ on the K3 to roll off the bottom three bands to their maximum, and boost the top two EQ bands. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
