[Elecraft] K3 Microphone

[ei6iz.brendan]

I have been getting excellent ssb results recently using a Computer mic.
Just plug it in the rear mic socket and select rear connector, Hi with
Bias, if drive level is too high try rP.L bIAS instead of rP.H bIAS
pretty much ANY computer mic will do. The one I use currently I bought on
Ebay for a pound.

Mics for the ham radio market are in the main all about marketing, if it
works ok on Skype it'll work ok on the K3 
Enjoy your K3, Mine prompted the sale of the Icom 7800

Don‘t complain. Nobody will understand. Or care. And certainly don‘t
try
to fix the situation yourself. It‘s dangerous. Leave it to a highly
untrained, unqualified, expendable professional.
