Re: KX3 microphone nut size

Rich NE1EE
I enjoy cooking and baking. All my recipes are in metric, and based on mass where ever I can, to get away from "cups", etc.
I am an amateur woodworker, and all my work is metric. A while back I completed a table with nearly 100 unique angles (trust me, it looks fine ;-)...all the while being told that a) I couldn't do it at all, and b) if I could, not in metric!!!
I had a guy at the place where I buy wood remark that wood was coming in "weird" dimensions! When I got home, I measured it and found that it was exact metric dimensions.
Mixing shellac is way easier in metric. You should see the hoops that you jump through using USCU.
My ham buddies are constantly remarking "oh, yeah, you use that metric stuff" when I mention that my antenna is a 40m EF. Doesn't that make more sense when I think of the bands it might work on?

***It's just a difficulty making the transition...then it's easier. I'll bet you could get everyone in the US to criticise the use of pounds, shilling, pence, and so on, when compared to the dollar in base 10...but turn the discussion to a general one of metric, and I get "but it's so confusing" all the time...is it really easier to remember conversions of feet and inches to metric for antennas? I was calculating an antenna dimension the other day, and it came to 1780mm...which is 1.78m...no fancy math involved. Imagine me calculating that in feet, and then converting to some precise measurement...I don't have a tape measure marked in decimal feet.

I bought a 30m tape that winds up into a case. It has been working fine for many years.

With regard to "12 has more factors than 10" in another post, I suggest that this is a matter of habit. Being able to divide 12 so many ways doesn't necessarily make it more useful, I opine, just more familiar. In grammar school, I had to learn a bunch of yard-foot-mile-etc conversions, but in SI, it's all base ten. I can divide 1780mm any way I want. In fact, a friend of mine who is a builder came to me for help one day calculating distances to do with an unusual roof angle. Showing him how to use his calculator to do the calcs was the easy part...the hard part was translating 20 feet 3 3/16 inches to decimal so that he could do the math, then convert that back to feet and inches. There are, I hear, calculators specifically designed to do this sort of math. Talk about a niche product.

I too a piece of heavy glass (amateur photographer equipment) to a glass place to be split in 2. You should have seen the effort to measure in USCU and divide accurately by 2, without decimals. A snap in metric.

0C as a freezing point makes so much more sense than 32F. And yes all my house temperatures report in C. And I use ISO dates yyyy-mm-dd, and 24hr time. Can't tell you the number of times there was confusion because someone was not sure if a time for some event  was 8am or pm, when the context could go either way.

***I don't say that converting our brains is easy, especially when we have learned something so fundamental as distance and volume in our youth...drilled into us, as it were. But the effort is so well worth it. I completely empathize with those who are still USCU, and find it a struggle to move to metric. The hardest unit for me is big distances. I still feel more comfortable estimating some distance as 3 miles than as 5km. Even that would be easier if the country just bit the bullet and set a time limit on moving to metric. Then we'd all be on the same page.

There are some illusions. Say I know that I need to go 15 miles, and I can do it at 60 mph. Neat, right? But what if I need to go 13 miles at 45 mph? (OK, those of us who do math estimating easily in our heads find this trivial.) But we fall into the habit of creating such shortcuts. I am much more likely to estimate a 13 or 14 mile trip as 15, so the math is easier. And 60 mph is a mile/minute, also convenient. But I could as easily get used to doing 100kph, and then saying that 50k will take 30 minutes. Driving around metric countries, it doesn't take long to see that all the speeds are in metric-friendly units, not something like 96.6 kph.

I do a lot of my own work, such as maintaining my motorcycles and such...so I have 2 sets of tools. Sigh. there was a time when I could get metric items more easily at HD, but several years ago they switched to carrying far fewer metric items.

Metric conversion hints:

Just remember,  9mm = .357",
                        5.56mm = .223",

Now, wasn't that easy?

Re: KX3 microphone nut size

Steve Gray
In reply to this post by Rich NE1EE
This is supposed to be addressed to the group, not Rich specifically, but on
this so-called "smart" 'phone, I cannot see how to do that, nor how to strip
out the miles (kilometres!) of duplicated commentary. Mea culpa my friends.
One day!

While I was still working, I used to build aircraft interior equipment,
specifically galleys and associated structures, and everything was in
imperial (actually decimal inches.) We used UNF and UNC attachment
fasteners. Even Airbus tolerated our decimal inch drawings and Boeing was a
given. I became completely conversant with imperial- both fractional and
decimal, but also metric. I routinely read fractional tape measures as a
decimal inch converted mentally on the fly. What I'm saying is it's only a
cocktail of laziness, stubborness and ********* to plough ahead with one
system completely in denial of another potentially better one. In my closing
years I did Q.A. and First Article Inspection. I wouldn't have survived with
Boeing or Airbus if I'd refused to be conversant in all systems.

While at college (I did Environmental Engineering) we were taught
dimensional analysis of equations. Everything is reduced to Length, Mass and
Time (ignoring wild cards like viscosity). When you see an equation
substantiated in this way, a light goes on in your head and the benefits of
the S.I. System are obvious. Until that is inculcated into your skull, you
take equations as something that is commited to memory but maybe never
stopping to consider why or who the heck figured that out? Sure you can
arrive at the same results using imperial units, but only if you remember
(without fail) to deploy empirical fudge factors so inches can be used
alongside ounces and so on.

That said, the S.I. unit is the metre. The recognised sub unit is the
millimetre. (not the centimetre). Suppose you want to cut something six feet
long (1,829 millimetres)? You pull out the tape measure and it happens to be
upside down. Enough times for it to be a lurking threat you measure (eg)
1,819 instead of 1.829 by mistake. It's your own fault, but for humans
interacting with the world I submit that feet and inches are a better way,
but for engineers (or anyone that likes to think of themselves as such.) The
S.I. System is a far better way to do things. I also think that the evolved
usage of centimetres is a tacit admission that inches were better than
millimetres. $0.02 of course.

Steve, G4VRR.

The Metric Conversion Act goes back to the Ford administration in 1974
(*).  It is enforced slightly less than the Uniform Spitting on the
Sidewalk Act that predates it.  The main reason that we see it at all in
the US is than manufacturers dealing in world-wide markets do not want
to have two different production lines,

* My Ford sedan is built to metric standards...  :)

During my tenure, FCC rules and standards were rewritten to express
dimensions in metric, but the conversion from USCU wasn't smooth.  For
instance, one specification for certain antenna heights was "20 feet
above ground".  So what did the FCC do?  Changed it to "6.1 meters (20
feet) above ground".  Why not an even 6 meters??  Everyone still refers
to it as the "20 foot rule".

The neglected metric unit, although not past of the SI, is the gradian
(grad).  100 grads to a quadrant.  400 grads to a full circle. 1 grad =
0.9 degree.  It is used mainly in European surveying, but since May 2020
is legal for use in the US.

And Len, there is a real society for exactly what you point out ... The
Duodecimal Society of America [www.dozenal.org] that promotes changing
the base of our number system to twelve for exactly the same reason. 
Not quite the same as the Flat Earth Society, but equally unlikely to
make much headway.

I can think of several reasons why an invasion by our northern neighbors
would be a positive and desirable occurrence. [;=)

Not to forget winning WW1 and WWII.

I remember punch cards fondly.  At Hughes I took a company-sponsored Fortran IV
course.  I was in Tucson and the main-frame was in CA.  We would do our coding,
punch and submit our cards, the batch would be run overnight and we would come
in the next morning to find out how many typos we made.  I wound up dating one
of the key punch girls, and reduced my typos to zero.

Well you had 20+ responses to your question however to my knowledge not one
answer. Since it's a metric thread it is quite easy to measure the diameter
in millimeters using a caliper (round up to the nearest size) and then
measure the distance between threads for the thread pitch.  e.g. M6 x 1

Re: KX3 microphone nut size

There were several answers, many were just wrong (1/4-20. Or likely).

But the absolute best answer was from Wayne of Elecraft who is sending out an envelope with a nut.  So who cares what size it is?

I think it might be 6X.75 (mm).
