I just got a pro 7 to use with my K3. Definitely sounds better with the high selection (FP.H not FP.L) and, of course, no bias as this is a dynamic element - it will short circuit the bias.
The output of this element does indeed seem slightly low (compared with HC-4) but if you close-talk it (it's a boom mike after all) and use a gain setting of about 40 (out of 60) I find there is enough to get 6 bars ALC on voice peaks. There is lots of low-end response, so you will want to play with the equalizer to get either rag chew or dx-test response. It would be nice if the K3 had about 3 dB more audio gain ... the manual says that if I tap [3] in the mic select menu there should be more gain. But I get "N/A" ;-( Ken ----- 73 Ken -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Heil-HC-7-Dynamic-Element-with-K3-0-Setp-tp7596221p7604527.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
