This is getting more and more confusing. What exactly is the compatibility
issue with the K3 and an electret microphone wired for Kenwood? I have a
Heil Proset with the IC element (which is electret).

Knut,
Unfortunately there is no one crisp answer - one must know the
particular microphone that he has in hand.
There may be a difference between a Kenwood (branded) microphone and a
Heil microphone with an adapter for the Kenwood (or there may not be -
it all depends).

That statement *is* true - however it may be misleading for those not
familiar with the K2 wiring for the Kenwood microphone. Pins 5 and 6
are *not* wired to the microphone configuration header in the K2 for a
Kenwood microphone (except for those Kenwood microphones which have a

Right, based on the diagram, it is not 100% compatible with Kenwood.

I see it and it states this:
"The K3 8-pin microphone connector is wired the same as the K2 using the
Kenwood pin-out."
The pin-out may be close to Kenwood's, but it is not the same. I literally

The K3 manual (rev C) shows 8v on pin 6 of the mic connector. See page 13.

The real key is using an external audio generator into the mic
input and seeing what comes out the other end using an
oscilloscope. This removes all the issues with microphones and
their setup.
I agree that antenna matching can make quite a difference to the
results, that is why I took the time to
