Re: [Elecraft] MH-3 hand microphone

[Mark Musick]

Hi John,
If the MH3 is on backorder, Elecraft would most likely ship you the KX2 with 
ATU and inform you that the MH3 is on backorder.
After placing the order, you could email them and tell them that you want the 
KX2 with ATU shipped right away if the mic is on backorder.
I see no reason that the radio shipment should be held up due to the 
unavailability of the mic.

How long? I'm tempted to order a KX2 with mic & ATU but not sure if the waiting 
time for the mic would further delay the shipment of the KX2.

Tnx/73,

Re: [Elecraft] MH-3

Difficult to photograph, Frank, but I have just taken mine apart to see
how it fits together:

In line with the microswitch you'll see a slot. Put the end of the
spring wire into the slot. Then position the long end into the slot in
the plastic handle on the side next to the PCB. Then ease the pivot back
into place. It's a bit fiddly, but I hope that helps.

Folks, I just received an MH3  with my new to me KX3.

Loaded with everything I am very happy with it!!

The microphone has an issue that is probably easy to fix.

Inside.. I found a very thin piece of metal that is the spring for the
microphone.  Not installed of course.. the mic has no tension.
I am electrical not mechanical… can anyone send me a picture of where
this piece of metal goes??
