[Elecraft] Kenwood MC-60 Mic with a K3?

The bias set to high in the K3?  The only options are on & off.

I read that article that info was pulled from prior. I just plugged mine in
& it worked. Was the mic I already had prior to getting my K3. No adapters
or rewiring.  I bought it a year ago new, probably an A. I personally have
never used nor needed the onboard amp (only made things sound awful, maybe
it helps somebody, not me). I have the IMP switch on 500. The bias set to
high in the K3, so you don't have to run the mic gain maxed out. The "enable
mic button" in the settings will make the freq up/down on the mic work but I
don't use it. Getting good reports from everyone I've talked to for a
non-fancy pants mic. I did tailor the tx EQ to my voice. Hope this helps.
