Bill,
You could try a nice looking, computer headset with electret mic. You'll
be amazed by the results. The K3 works well with just about any mic.
Well done Elecraft.
I never bought any handmic. But I own several headsets, a $4,50 plastic
one (has a good mic), a Yamaha CM500 ($45, many K3 owners have that one,
good mic) and a david clark aviation headset (several hundreds of
dollars, good mic).
The difference is in the ears of the headsets, all mics perform well,
thanks to the EQ/gain/proc-setting possibilities in the K3. I take the
plastic headset with me when camping, the CM500 in my quiet shack and
the david clark when I'm working in a multi-operator contest with lots
op people walking and talking.
As far as mic-audio is concerned: how much hi-fi can you put through a
2.5kHz bandwidth SSB signal? Will the expensive Heil PR-10 make a real
difference? For peace of mind: buy the Heil. 'My mic is is Heil PR-10'
sounds quite different from "my mic is a cheap electret computermic'.

I just completed assembly of my K3S, KAT500, KPA500 and P3. I didn't order a
microphone from Elecraft. I am considering a Heil PR-10 but will welcome any
suggestions.
