[Elecraft] K3 Question

 I plan on eventually getting the 2nd receiver, as I think
all sorts of cool things can/will eventually be done with the K3
in respect to the diversity thing.

Maybe even a noise nuller type setup where you have a noise antenna
that picks up local noise and eliminates it.

Diversity itself would be great, 2 different antennas can
act very different under QSB situations.

I have actually switched between the G5RV and the vertical
antenna manually during slow QSB situations!
