K3 and K2 Side by Side Photo?

[WA8EBM]

Nice pics Craig.
I see you have the MicroKeyer hooked up.   I assume you brewed your own connection cables since the website says they are not available til Dec 1st.   How does it work with the radio?  Also notice you have a Heil Cable on the K3, wonder what mic you are using and the results.

I have the K2 cables for the MicroKeyer. The only connection to the K3 right
now is the key. I want to end up with a complete K2 and K3 setup so I'll
either get another MicroKeyer and cables for the K3 or the MicroKeyer II. I
haven't examined the feature list to see what the newer model offers. I
don't really use many of the features of the MicroKeyer but it works with my
contest logging program (WriteLog) and it's easy to set up.

I have the Elecraft mic and as far as I know it works ok. I used it in SS
and didn't get any negative reports. I'm not much of a SSB op -- SS is about
the only time I hook up a mic. Plus my call is great for CW but is really
bad for phone (try saying November Zulu Zero Romeo really fast). :-)

K3 cables will not be available by December 1 (I'll update the
web page later today) as they have not shipped from the factory
as expected.  The factory is still waiting on a production K3
(via the DL/VP6D group - who have not received their K3s) for

K2 cable sets (temporarily out of stock) should work with the
following limitations:

   1) no support for FSK
   2) PTT, mic and AFSK audio is via the mic connector
   3) the "AF Out" (J5) connection must be modified to
      move the connection currently on the ring to the
      sleeve.
