[Elecraft] k3 transmit problem

[Bruce McLaughlin]

The K-3 requires a microphone cable configured to the Kenwood standard.  I'm
not sure about the Omni, but my Orion II uses a Yaesu standard cable.  You
may want to check.  I suspect the foster connector pins are miswired for the
K-3.  You may also want to be sure the bias is off as I believe that is
probably a dynamic microphone element rather than an electret.  You may also
wish to check with Heil.  I believe they sell an appropriate dongle for the
pro set would work with the K-3.
