If you scan the archives I think you'll find the answer is everything from Heil products to computer gaming headsets.

Heil Gold Line. Narrow and Wide settings are both fbom. Narrow really cuts through the pileups.

Heil Pro set Plus with HC4-DX and HC5 full range elements, but you can get great audio reports with a $ 15,- headset/microphone.
What I like about the Pro Set Plus is that it covers your ears so QRM inside the shack doesn't bother me that much.
That really helps during Multi/Multi SSB Contesting ;-)
I also find it to be very ergonomic.

I tried 3 mics with my K3, Goldline G4 wide setting, RE20, and Audio-Technica 3035 which needs a phontom pwr supply. All worked great and received glowing audio reports. All were previously used with a Kenwood ts870 and no wiring changes were made to the mic plug. I use a hand held PTT switch.
TX eq settings were the same for all: 50 +3, 100 +7, 200 +3, 400 +4, 800-0, 1.2,2.4,3.2 +7. Mic Gain Comp. G4 15 7 RE20 11 22 3035 6 12 With ESSB turned on (3.5) reports were better yet. I do not use ESSB very often but very nice to have. My voice I feel is crummy and not very suitable for bradcasting. Currently use the 3035, RE20 is with another rig, G4 is backup. Your milage may vary :>) Gene

Gene:
Looking at your transmit audio equilizer settings. You would accomplish the very same effect if you dropped all of your settings by 3 db. In other words set as follows: 50 @ 0, 100 @ +4, 200 @ 0, 400 @+1, 800 @ -3, 1.2 @ +4, 2.4 @ +4, 3.2 @ +4. I have been using a commercial dynamic hand mic with the UP/DOWN features which I do NOT have to use the transmit audio equilizer at all as the audio sounds best with all settings at zero. This tells me that this mic is a perfect match for my voice for the K3. I get very similar results when I used my Shure 444D dynamic mic where again I do NOT require the use of the transmit equilizer as it sounds best in all settings at zero. However, if I use the optional electret hand mic from Elecraft then I have to play with the transmit audio equilizer to make it sound better but it never sounds as good as either of my dynamic microphones. Just my 2 cents worth from Fern VE7GZ with K3 serial #412. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene W2BXR" <[hidden email]> To: <[hidden email]> Sent: Wednesday, October 22, 2008 6:44 PM Subject: RE: [Elecraft] K3 What mics are proplr using for SSB?
