What is the microphone pin-out on the K3?
The K3 8-pin microphone connector is wired the same as the K2, which is generally compatible with the Kenwood dynamic microphone pin-out. Plus we added a lot more mic pre-amp gain (adjustable) in the K3. There’s also a 1/8-inch mono mic connector on the rear panel which can also be directly used with Heil headset microphones like our Proset-K2. . This helps with keeping the clutter down during the heat of a contest. The mic source is set from a menu option.
