[Elecraft] Using Heil Pro Set Elite boom mic on K3.. what adapter is required?

[Bob Wilson, N6TV]

Yes.  Remove all Heil adapters.  Connect Pro Set directly to rear panel
1/8" MIC and PHONES jacks.
Tap MENU.
Rotate VFO B knob until you see MAIN:MIC SEL.
Use MAIN:MIC SEL to select rP (rear panel) mic. by rotating VFO A knob.
Tap 1 to select Lo or Hi mic gain, whichever works best.
Tap 2 to toggle mic bias ON
Tap MENU to exit, or hold it to toggle to the CONFIG menu.

Use CONFIG:SPKR+PH to enable the PC speaker and headphones so you won't
have to reach around to the back of the K3 to unplug anything when you want
to listen with the internal or external speaker.  Assign this function to
PF1 or PF2 for convenience (just hold the PF key when this menu is selected
to make the assignment).

73,
Bob, N6TV

The  Heil pro sets have  a 1/8 inch stereo plug for the phones and a1/8
inch mono plug for the mic. Those will plug right into the back of the K3
without an adapter. If you prefer using the front panel mic connector,
you'll need the Heil AD-1-K adapter.
In either case, don't forget to set the menu selection for which mic (front
or rear) you want to use.
