[Elecraft] Kenwood MC-60 Microphone to K3

[Mike WA8BXN]

Hi Mark, 
 
I'm not sure exactly what you have to work with and what you want to do. I
don't have an MC-60 but did some searching for information on it. Seems one
kind has the microphone hard wired to the base, so it doesn't seem like that
one would work easily with a boom. Another variation says you can use the
microphone with out the base, just use the coiled cord as an extension for
the microphone cable on the mic. If you search for "8 pin microphone
extension" you will find many products available, both coiled and straight
cords.

Good Afternoon, my name is Mark Griffin and my call is KB3Z. I have used a Kenwood MC-60 microphone ever since I purchased my K3 four years ago. I would like to connect the microphone to a boom assembly, but trying to find a microphone cable that would be long enough to connect to the K3 and then to the front of the boom might be difficult. I tried Heil, but Jerry Lynch gave me no help whatsoever. Does anyone know of a manufacturer who makes microphone cables? Thanks!! Mark KB3Z
