Re: [Elecraft] Heil ProSet IC for KX3?

2014-07-08 Thread Chris Johnson
Thx Eric,

My main question is if the iC mic element is required for the KX3?  Can you use 
the non-powered Dynamic element in their normal ProSet without any difference 
in audio quality?

Re: [Elecraft] Heil ProSet IC for KX3?

2014-07-08 Thread Don Wilhelm

Chris,

The answer is YES.  Turn off the mic bias, and you may have to increase 
the mic gain, but the KX3 can handle most microphones with a proper adapter.

Yes the IC element is preferred for the KX3 as it has capability of providing 
the bias for the electret element.  Check the manual for setup instructions for 
microphones.

Chris,
You will need the IC version. It uses the same element type that 
the KX3 wants to see. I use the IC version here for contesting. I did do 
an adjustment to the equalizer and compressor settings and got very good 
audio reports for the efforts.
