Joel, Well since you specified a hand-held microphone, no one should mention the CM500 since it is a "headset" (headphone and boom microphone combination). I can agree that the Sony MDR series are headphones that are very good and comfortable.
I would strongly recommend the MH2 (note, there are no 'dashes' in Elecraft equipment designations except for the N-Gen and the 2T-Gen mini-modules). 73, Don W3FPR On 3/7/2012 6:51 PM, Joel Black wrote: > Looking for a good hand-held mic for the K3.
