The same could be said be said about buying a loaded K3/P3 SVGA for $5500+ instead of an IC-718 for $700 both radios?
Myself I prefer a better quality of radio, mic and microHAM equipment over Signalink. I hate to have a weak link in an otherwise good station and then quality comes into the picture plastic vs. metal. That said I do have several "plastic mic's in the shack 2 Elecraft/Heil headsets and 2 Elecraft hand mic's K2/KX3. Quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten.

I have a K3 and really love it. I am looking at purchasing a new microphone pretty soon. I am currently using a Kenwood MC-60 and I get excellent reports on my modulation. But I have been reading alot about the Heil microphones and was wondering what Heil microphone would work good with my system. I basically like to operate for DX though I do chat from time to time on some nets. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
