[Elecraft] Heil Proset Plus and K3

Well, I don't know.  I also have a non electret version which I use with my
FT 1000D.  Maybe it would be interesting to try it on the K3 with the bias
turned off just in case.  I suspect the gain might be lower but I would be
mainly concerned about whether it might short something that shouldn't be
shorted.  I don't recall whether the non-electret Proset came with a
connector schematic or not.  Maybe someone else on the forum has already
tried this with the K3.  If so and the radio is still working I guess that
would be reassuring.

Well, I haven't tried the electret version but I have the dynamic Proset 
5 and it works fine (at least, for the few SSB QSOs I felt obligated to 
make as a beta tester).
