This is an excellent headset at a reasonable price. In a gaming headset with a mic, the tip and ring are shorted together and you can plug it into the rear of the K3s. You cannot use Heil's adapter for the front panel Foster 8 pin connector on the K3s because they short the ring to the sleeve for some unknown reason. So in order to use the K3s front panel 8pin Foster socket, you need to make your own Foster to stereo mini phone connector adapter. Only two connections and DX Engineering has an excellent Foster plug. Ignore the reference to Heil Replacement Part, it's just the same old Foster 8 pin plug for all mics and rigs.

Subject: [Elecraft] K3S boom mic ensemble options.

I will soon have a K3S and I’ve been in the market for a boom mic set for the shack. This will be my first boom mic. I’ve checked out the Hiel site and could not find any complete packages. Everything is sold in too many subassemblies. I’ve tried emailing them but no reply. Our local ham store (radioworld.ca) only sells in pieces as well.

I’d prefer a tried and tested set ready to go boom mic set for the K3S.

Any recommendations? In this case value (performance and longevity comes ahead of price) for me. I plan to keep this station for a long time.

Thanks.
