Kieth,
The answer is 'it all depends'. You will have to do some checking of
the information about that particular mic.
Look at the microphone pinout information. If either pins 5 or 6 are
used, then that particular Kenwood microphone is *not* compatible with
the K3. If pins 5 and 6 have No Connection, then that Kenwood mic can
be used by the K3.
In general, a Kenwood dynamic mic that does not have an internal
preamplifier usually meets the compatibility criteria, but Kenwood
Electret mics and those with an internal preamp will not work.

Has anyone tried Bob W2ENY's Kenwood headsets on a K3, do they plug
straight in being Kenwood plugs or do they need modification?
They seem to be excellent units and I'm looking for a possible
headset/ mic combination to use here at home with K3 #133 and with
our radio club ( VK6ANC) two K3's when we get them in a few months time.
Thanks guys
