Barry specifically said HC4/HC5 elements, and those are definitely dynamic elements.

I replied directly to Barry, but I'm fairly certain the Heil element is
NOT dynamic and needs bias.

There's a jumper AND the menu setting. I forget what the defaults are
because I played with both to get this exact setup to work.

Barry,

I cannot comment on the RemoteRig setup because I do not have any experience with it.

There are some statements that may require clarification - I think the Heil document is somewhat confusing.
1) For a dynamic microphone, turn bias off.
2) The K3 (and K3/0 and mini) can turn bias on or off - so it is not dependent on electret microphones such as the Elecraft MH2. The choice of bias or not is a user choice in the menu.
3) The Heil microphone elements are relatively low output.
4) The K3 microphone "L" or "H" selection determines the gain of the microphone preamp. "L" is low amplification, and "H" is higher amplification. With Heil microphones, you may have to use the "H" setting. 5) Try the "H" setting with bias off in the menu and see if you can get the required 5 to 7 bars on the ALC meter.
