I may have misread the Heil webpage. Heil responded and told me to read the K3 
manual. Ummm...I was. I just thought the Heil page would help clarify things. 
It did not, IMHO, and Elecraft couldn't help either. It would help if people, 
such as Heil, understood that we aren't all mic experts! <sigh>
This scenario kind of reminds me of the old days of supporting leased data 
lines when Pac Bell was responsible for the ends and AT&T in the middle. LOL!
Thanks, Steve

Steve,

Heil is giving out erroneous information.  The low output Heil 
microphones require setting the K3 mic gain range to HIGH.
