[Elecraft] Now which mic can I use.

[Phil Wheeler]

Some prefer headphone-mic combos; I think that's 
what he's using with his K3. I use a Kenwood hand 
mic with my K3.

With my KX3 I use the Elecraft MH3 so far -- and 
an MH2 with my K2.

Both the KX3 and K3 are so configurable that they 
can be used with most any mic. The challenge is in 
the cabling, especially with the KX3.
