[Elecraft] what microphones work best with K3?

[Keith Heimbold]

Just wanted to report that what I received yesterday as my "great" deal from a company in northern PA was not the CM500 as advertised on amazon but HPE100M. I am thoroughly pissed and they were advertised as new and were in a crumbled box. Caveat emptor should have been alerted when the price was so low.
