>>I placed my order for a K3 at Dayton yesterday after talking with Wayne >>and a few others at the Elecraft booth.  Wayne is a very popular guy,

Do Ya THINK? ;-0

>>Seems like these guys couldn't even get a minute alone to get something >>to eat!

For them, Dayton is a poor mans Jenny Craig (if you throw in a little sleep deprivation). 

>>I first asked Eric about using my Shure 444 microphone (older model with high impedance only).

>>Has anyone tried using the Shure 444 microphone on the K3?  Any comments
>>will be appreciated.

Of course Eric will give you the conservative answer not having one hooked up at home, but I do have one hooked up, it's a Shure 444D, black and has hi/lo impedance switch and vox switch in the base. I have it wired for the front panel and it provides good drive and a good response, adaptable to the operator using the TX EQ.
