Re: [Elecraft] help wiring a mic?
but for 18$,,, including the suspension it looks scool. i bought a similiar if not identical... from banggood it plugs right into the mic jack on the back of the k3 kx3 so much for 'studio' Me thinks it is for computer video gamers and bloggers. and it works just like every other electret cut off the bottom response... bill At 12:51 AM 7/6/2018, Jim Brown wrote: On 7/5/2018 3:27 PM, Schumacher, Paul wrote: I have a Neewer NW 800 mic that I want to use with a KX3.

Re: [Elecraft] help wiring a mic?
You guys are all brutal! :) This is a hobby that we try things and see how they work and if it doesn't, then you learned something. Ham Radio is an experimental hobby or did we all forget that. All you audio engineers didn't get where you are today without going through the school of hard knocks.Why not help him out so he can learn something. BTW, the KOSS SB40's are really bad. All bottom end and little highs. Maybe the 2 I have are defective. I have one of these mics and I use it for several uses, but I have also had it on my Flex and it sounds darn good and for the money while running SmartSDR remote and using PC Audio. I would recommend it for someone on a budget. I guess I'll have to wire it up for my KX2 and see how it works. There might not be enough BIAS voltage as other had suggested.

Hi Ron, Fear not, my spelling is quite different to US English. Never had a problem. On another subject. KH1 was #331 mixed for me. I started from zero in mid 2000 after a spell of about 10 years QRT. The first 257 were with the K2. All have been worked K2/K3 and for the first three years only made about 500 QSO QRP to a low wire and less entities than is possible over a major contest weekend. Now rather more tooled up!

Re: [Elecraft] help wiring a mic?
Good answer. A friend once petitioned the FCC to disallow AM. The answer he got from the FCC was that Amateur Radio was an experimental medium and as such, disallowing emission types was counterintuitive.

Re: [Elecraft] help wiring a mic?
Can we please not start the bandwidth discussion (er, wars?), yet again? Perhaps it’s time to help the poor fellow wire his mic? Which is all he asked. Maybe we can’t do that. Fine. It’ll probably work out of the box. And even if it doesn’t, it’s $20 … for goodness sake. Cheaper than an Elecraft hand mic (which are perfectly good microphones, actually, and have no “plastic" sound to them that I’ve ever discerned).

Saving someone $400 dollars is FRIENDLY ADVICE, not criticism. I took the trouble to search for a data sheet for the mic, found nothing that would even tell me what connector was used, what powering configuration it had, or how the mic was wired. Pro electret mics used a balanced form of powering called "phantom," and must work into a circuit that feeds + to both sides of a balanced output and negative to the shield. The electret mics used with unbalanced inputs get their bias in a very different way. The two systems are NOT compatible, and phantom power is built into preamps and mixers. W2IHY has built this into his 8-band equalizer. At $299, it's the lowest cost box I could find on his website that does it. AND -- if you have a K3, K3S, KX2, or KX3 there's a VERY good equalizer built in, so you're spending $299 plus shipping on the mic interface. Bottom line -- with these radios, you don't need anything that W2IHY sells. If you must use a pro (balanced) electret mic with ham gear, Radio Design Labs sells some relatively low cost mic preamps, but by the time you buy the preamp and the power supply(ies) you've spent some bucks there too. http://www.rdlnet.com/search.php?searchquery=mic+preamp But we don't know which powering interface the mic uses -- nothing I've found on the internet tells me. IF there is access to the capsule itself, it can be wired directly to the KX3 input. 73, Jim K9YC __ 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
Re: [Elecraft] help wiring a mic?
Overall this is one of the most civilized ham forums out there, or so we’ve been told hundreds of times. But it’s easy for many of us to occasionally get defensive, testy, or even indignant when our long-held beliefs are challenged. Myself included. It doesn’t mean we're not sincerely trying to help. The only way people on *any* list can get along is to be forgiving. We’ve all said things we wished we could take back. We feel even worse when things escalate for reasons having nothing to do with the original thread. My advice: If you’re turning red and slapping the keys hard when you respond to something--on this list, or anywhere else--wait a few minutes. Take a breath. Help us keep things fun and interesting here. 73, Wayne N6KR __ 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

Re: [Elecraft] help wiring a mic?
The poor guy who started this thread just wanted to know how to wire a mic. It quickly became a discussion of whether he should even use that mic. I don't believe we have that right. The question is about an XLR connector. We should either answer his question or lay out.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Of course you can throw money at the problem by buying these products. A fool and his money are easily separated. :) Very good sounding mics built into gaming headsets like the Yamaha CM500 and a similar Koss model plug straight into the K3 and KX3 and sound great. I looked up this mic and tried to find specs. There's nothing there -- it's all silly putty. Every place I looked said something different. :) There's no response graph, not even a description of what connector is used and how it is wired! Inside that mic is a cheap (maybe a buck) electret capsule. The shiny enclosure is simply designed to facilitate the separation process noted above. I'm retired from a career in pro audio, A Fellow of the Audio Engineering Society, and have a closet full of REAL pro mics that I use for recording music. The only one I'd consider using (and have used) for ham radio is an RE16, a variable-D dynamic with a good blast filter. I used it because, at the time, I didn't have anything better, because the variable-D construction eliminates the LF boost of proximity effect, and, because it's a dynamic, all I had to do was solder up a cable to a connector that mated with the rig. List members K4TAX and W4TV are also retired broadcast engineers, and I'm sure there are others. 73, Jim K9YC __ 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

Yes, you may be able to get the mike to communications quality with racks of audio processing equipment etc., but you will probably spend more for all that when you add the cost of the mike, than radio costs by itself. Seem a tad wasteful to me when the radio already has a good EQ and a mike costing a fraction of the fancy "studio" mike will sound the same on the other end of the QSO.

Yeah, yeah I know, you're voice is "different" and you need all that stuff to make it sound "right". If that's what you want, then by all means go for it.
