[Elecraft] Appropriate Mic for K3 (new)

[dmoes at nexicom.net]

 I have 2 mics     one on an old articulated lamp arm   dynamic I 
bought at a surplus store. It was a cheep knock of of a shure SM58  
cost me $4.00   get tons of good audio remarks.   just makes me wonder 
why others need $300  condensers.

Second and a popular one on K3 is the Yamaha CM500  headset with boom 
mic.  good audio both listening and transmit.    the truth is any 
comfortable computer headset with mic will work very well for you.

the transmit EQ is your friend with any mic.
