I purchased a Heil PR20 microphone after comparing sound quality with
several other options. To my ear, it had a nice combination of clarity and
fullness. However, I am getting relatively low output from the mic and
consequently low drive to the K3/100. With the microphone configuration on

Howard,
I am using a PR20 and am able to run my mic gain at about 20.
I use it on the FP set on H and the onboard preamp turned on ( press 7 )

means only the tip and shell are connected in the jack (no connection to
the ring).
OTOH, if the mic plug is stereo and connects only to tip and ring
instead of tip and shell, then there will be no connection for one

The problem may be your microphone cable wiring. I will try to cover
the three possible cases I know about for connecting a balanced mic to
an unbalanced input.
The Heil PR20 microphone uses an XLR connector to connect to the mic
cord - two balanced wires on pins 2 and 3 plus the
