I've been reading the mail about mics for the K3. I am using a Yaesu MD-100 for my FT-897D (which I will be selling upon the arrival of my K3). It's a very nice desk-top, simple mic with 8 pin configuration which of course does not match the K3 pin outs.
Is there anyone who can suggest how I can use this mic with the K3?

Tom,
That's easy, just open the mic plug and re-wire it for the K3 pinout - or if you want to continue using it with Yaesu equipment, build a Yaesu to Elecraft adapter. 73, Don W3FPR THOMAS BRERETON wrote: > I've been reading the mail about mics for the K3.

The FT-897D has a modular (RJ-45) mic jack. This will require obtaining the cable for a Yaesu FT-1000MP (Foster/8) and then modifying the Foster cable. 73, ...
