Seriously misguided would be trying to run a 12V device off 120V.
Why? If an idea is seriously misguided, saying so

Same here, Rick. I monitor this list to receive information from Elecraft, and
to see what problems others are having with their radios.
I have little interest in most of the technical discussions, since they can

You could start with these two, read “close miking” in the Wikipedia article.
The second article is about speech recording for oral historians, so that is
fairly applicable to voice communications

I can’t imagine that paralleling four elements would make a big difference. It
would be more directional at higher frequencies. A 2x2 array would be about
20mm across, which is one wavelength at 17000Hz. That would start to be
directional, because angled waves would cancel out.

Others have commented on the directivity problems with paralleling
microphone elements.
Regarding the gain that you mentioned, any electret element is going
to have a very high output. Much more than the K3 needs. The K3 can
effectively handle just about any microphone.

Provides more gain and improves the SNR.

The only thing to be gained by combining microphones is directivity,
doing that is VERY difficult, and microphones that provide directivity
are common and inexpensive.
I wanted a desk mic to go along with my KX3 station. Wanted something
more portable than the Heil boom and mic I use on my other radio. I have
experimented with dynamic mics on the KX3 and didn't get the results I
liked but did get very nice results with using 4 CUI electret condenser
