[Elecraft] Just getting a K3 and wonder what desk microphone is recommended (reasonably priced though). Ron KK6ZRA

[Don Wilhelm]

Kenwood's dynamic microphones are compatible with the Elecraft pinout.  
Be cautious of those with an amplifier which need a voltage on pin 5 - 
Elecraft puts the DC voltage on pin 6, so those will not work unless the 
mic plug wiring is altered.

You can use just about any dynamic or electret element microphone if you 
are willing to re-wire the mic plug to match the Elecraft pinout.
