[Elecraft] Dynamic Mics on K3

[Kenneth Lopez]

Giulio,

Your problem is easy to fix.  I also use a Shure SM 57 on my K3.

It is a professional microphone, and is Low Impedance.

You need to use an in-line impedance matching transformer.

I use a Shure A95UF with an adaptor cable I made myself.  They are  
inexpensive and work very well.

Companies like Shure, Audio Technica, Radio Shack, Sescom, and many  
others make them.


Here is an example:  http://www.coutant.org/matching/5.html

  I'm sure you can find them in Italy.

Cheers,

Ken  N6TZV

Currently I'm using a Shure SM57 dynamic mic. The others are brandless
or unknown.
