W2ENY headsets for kenwood radios ( K3)

Mike Scott-7
Keith,

I have the same headset/microphone as W2ENY and have very good results with
my K3.
I have used it both with the Kenwood adapter on the front panel as well as
without it on the pack panel. I have made no modifications, er well maybe
one described below. The microphone requires bias selected from the K3 menu.

My headset was purchased from US Interface. I believe it to be identical to
W2ENY. http://usinterface.com/naviusa_012.htm

It is quite comfortable to wear over a long period of time.

The modification I made comes from the fact that the wire to the headset
connects to the ear cup that has the attached microphone. When I turn my
head the movement of the wire couples noise to the microphone. I re-routed
the cable over the head to the other ear cup with small cable ties.
