[Elecraft] RE50B microphone connected to K3

[John Kountz]

Has anyone had experience in tying pin 3 to pin one in an XLR connector to 
enable the transition from a balanced microphone to the unbalanced input of 
the K3?  In this regard I have used this arrangement to attach an 
Electrovoice RE50B to my K3 and, although I have made satisfactory 
contactswith this arrangement, I ask because many of you respondents appear 
experienced in audio and may have alternatives to making this 
interconnection.
