[Elecraft] Microphone for the K3 questions

[Bill]

First, and most important: Using the TX Equalizer can tame any mic. You 
can emphasize highs, lows, or a combination to produce armchair copy audio.

I use the MH2 and I get excellent reports. It is used for armchair copy 
type operations - rag chew, nets, gas bagging, etc. However, I must 
quickly note that the mechanical operation of the PTT operation makes 
noise. Enough noise that some folks were complaining about it.

My fix was to purchase one of those square PTT button type switches from 
Heil (manufacturer of the MH2) and do a little Dremel work  and epoxy 
filling to the mic's shell. Now it works very quietly and I can easily 
replace the button switch when needed.
