K3 with Yet ANOTHER non-standard mic pin-out. Now ham radio has at least 4

After reading several responses to Charles' earlier post, and the above from
Charles himself, I realized that I was reading my "own" interpretation into
his comments.

My difficulty with the K3 front panel MIC connector had nothing to do with
pin-out - that has been well documented. Mine was a mechanical problem. I
can not "seat" the plug deeply enough to engage the screw-on collar.

Re: RE: K3 Mic Connector

That does sound rather strange, did it fit the K2 (I you have one)?
There is a lot of depth in the K3s fitting, my connectors go 'home' before I
have to do the collar up, that is, the collar on my line sockets will slide
back up from the mating part. Screwing them on and making a good connection
isn't a problem.

Wonder if its your particular connector?
