[Elecraft] Checking K2 sensitivity...

I am the second owner of K2 #2289. I've built and added a number of options.
But I wonder about its rx sensitivity. I often have to use the preamp on 30
and 20 meters to hear weaker signals. The same is not true of my 756 PRO 2,
at least on the same signals while doing an A/B comparison.

That said, I'd like to know the best way to re-check the rx sensitivity on
my K2. I still prefer it to my PRO 2 for copying CW, especially with narrow
filters kicked in. The PRO 2 has horrible ringing with narrow filters.
Otherwise, it just seems like the PRO 2 has better ears. Some how I don't
think that should be. Maybe my K2 needs tweaking.

73,
