[Elecraft] K3 Feature Request - Independant Selection of Mic Gain F/R

[Terry Schieler]

Same issue I am dealing with Andy.  I have my headset plugged in the rear
and my boom mic in the front panel jack.  Both need different settings and I
tend to switch back and forth between the two mics with some frequency.

It would be nice to be able to independently select mic gain for front or
rear panel input. Currently, changing one also changes the other. It would
be nice to be able to set, say, rear panel input to low gain (rP.L) and
front panel input to high gain (FP.H) independently. I find the
computer-type headset with electret microphone I use on the rear panel (bias
turned on) has plenty of gain and only requires the low mic gain setting.
However, using a dynamic hand mic on the front panel (bias turned off)
requires gain set to high.

I know it is only a small issue but it would be nice to have it added to the
"To Do" list, if not already there.
