[Elecraft] mic

[Jack Spitznagel]

Fred,

I have a widget that adapts a Sennheiser S1 av-noise canceler to my KX3. Use it for hi noise situations and it works like charm, even Massey-Ferguson mobile.🙂 
Try it with the David Clarks. 
Was connector a mismatched size pair of phone jacks or a complex military looking connector?

I'm not even sure I know where it is right now.  Will it work with my K3 if I can find it and get the connector compatible?  I know they're expensive.
